About this listen

Following the success of his number one New York Times best seller Make Your Bed, which has sold more than one million copies, Admiral William H. McRaven is back with amazing stories of bravery and heroism from his career as a Navy SEAL and commander of America's Special Operations Forces.

Admiral William H. McRaven is a part of American military history, having been involved in some of the most famous missions in recent memory, including the capture of Saddam Hussein, the rescue of Captain Richard Phillips, and the raid to kill Osama bin Laden.

Sea Stories begins in 1963 at a French officers' club in France, where Allied officers and their wives gathered to have drinks and tell stories about their adventures during World War II - the place where a young Bill McRaven learned the value of a good story. Sea Stories is an unforgettable look back on one man's incredible life, from childhood days sneaking into high-security nuclear sites to a day job of hunting terrorists and rescuing hostages.

Action-packed, humorous, and full of valuable life lessons like those exemplified in McRaven's best-selling book Make Your Bed, Sea Stories is a remarkable memoir from one of America's most accomplished leaders.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Memoirs of a special forces operator told beautifully

Admiral McRaven’s life in the US Navy Seals,
Described through a series of short stories involving operations is told wonderfully well in this audio book. In general, memoirs are better read than listened to but this is a classic exception. There are some beautiful snippets on the code among those who soldier and military humour is interspersed exceedingly well through the audio book. Thoroughly enjoyed the listen

Great Compelling Stories

All the stories were brilliant, especially the one from BUD/S training, however, it was difficult to understand some words spoken by the narrator.
