Praise for No Greater Duty
No Greater Duty is a tour de force that plunges readers headfirst into a skillfully paced, intricately plotted ethics drama on par with A Sense of Honor by James Webb. Stewart captures the gritty, often paradoxical, essence of military service, expertly presenting one of the most omnipresent leadership challenges—how to balance “doing what is right” against “the rules.” A timely, riveting story by an author highly tuned into the Naval Academy and the naval service.
Steven Konkoly, USNA ’93, Wall Street Journal best-selling author
A powerful story that provides a multi-faceted leadership case study full of ethics challenges. The author does a great job developing characters in a realistic context that displays their individual growth, and biases facing women service members.
RADM Margaret Klein, USN (Ret.), USNA ’81, former Commandant of Midshipmen
The separation of right from wrong, integrity, ethics, moral and physical courage, challenges, confrontations, personal and professional decisions—duty and honor—all shape the heart and core of novels about the U.S. Naval Academy. When the tale is told well—as it is in Robert Stewart’s No Greater Duty—the reading is both excellent and stirring.
Proceedings, the U.S. Naval Institute
It sounds cliché to call No Greater Duty a page-turner, or a book that you can’t put down, but it really is. I found myself not wanting the story to end. It keeps you engaged, immersed, and entertained with each page.
Commander David R. McKinney, USN (Ret.), USNA ’98
This story is a tale of leadership; the characters navigate the gray areas where leaders will tread during their career. Frequently the tough answers are not easy to arrive at, and the author tells the story masterfully. Entertaining read and excellent plot that is hard to put down!
Colonel Jon Aytes, USMC (Ret.), USNA ‘90
Great book! A compelling and realistic story of modern American warriors. A unique insider’s look at midshipman life and the ethical challenges facing leaders today.
Lieutenant Colonel Amy McGrath, USMC (Ret.), USNA ’97, author of Honor Bound
No Greater Duty is an instructive tale of leadership and integrity, told by an author who knows the topics well.
Major Nathaniel Fick, USMC (Ret.), New York Times best-selling author of One Bullet Away
A masterful piece of work. The nation is ready for a tale of heroism and character, on the battlefield and beneath the ocean as well as the U.S. Naval Academy. I enjoyed every page.
Commander Ronald H. Reimann, Sr., USN (Ret.), USNA ’61
A timely and timeless read about the character-forging experience of military service. The intense combat scenes will keep readers turning to the next page. But the “moral” combat scenes are equally gripping, and showcase the loyalty of our service members to each other on battlefields abroad and at home.
Major Frank “Gus” Biggio, USMC (Ret.), author of The Wolves of Helmand
This powerful, expertly told story, rich with meticulous attention to detail, is an intensely compelling tale of integrity and moral courage. Whether embedded in a Noncombatant Evacuation Operation (NEO) in Sierra Leone, in a tense standoff under the sea, or in the halls of the U.S. Naval Academy, this intriguing coming-of-age read deftly relates the very real hard ethical and professional decisions our service members face, and the deeply personal consequences our actions have.
