“History matters to McCain, and for him America is and was about its promise. The book is his farewell address, a mixture of the personal and the political. ‘I have loved my life,’ he writes. ‘All of it.’ The Restless Wave is a fitting valedictory for a man who seldom backed down.” —The Guardian

“A book-length meditation on what it means to face the hard challenges of long life and the sobering likelihood of imminent death…A reflection on hardship, a homily on purpose, a celebration of life—and a challenge to Americans to live up to their values and founding principles at a time when both are in jeopardy.” —The Boston Globe

In this candid political memoir from Senator John McCain, an American hero reflects on his life, public service, country, courage, and what matters most.

“I don’t know how much longer I’ll be here. Maybe I’ll have another five years…Maybe I’ll be gone before you read this. My predicament is, well, rather unpredictable. But I’m prepared for either contingency, or at least I’m getting prepared. I have some things I’d like to take care of first, some work that needs finishing, and some people I need to see. And I want to talk to my fellow Americans a little more if I may.”

So writes John McCain in this inspiring, moving, frank, and deeply personal memoir. Written while confronting a mortal illness, McCain looks back with appreciation on his years in the Senate, his historic 2008 campaign for the presidency against Barack Obama, and his crusades on behalf of democracy and human rights in Eastern Europe and the Middle East.

Always the fighter, McCain attacks the spurious nationalism and political polarization afflicting American policy. He makes an impassioned case for democratic internationalism and bipartisanship. He recalls his disagreements with several presidents, and minces no words in his objections to some of President Trump's statements and policies. At the same time, he tells stories of his most satisfying moments of public service and offers a positive vision of America that looks beyond the Trump presidency. The Restless Wave is John McCain at his best.

I loved learning about the man and the Hero John McCain!
It was unbiased., he was writing from his heart, from his time in Vietnam Nam as a prisoners for war for 5 years in the POW camp, to his last battle with Cancer, and Congress when he returned shortly after his brain surgery to the Senate, that he loved so well, to place his final vote against the Trump Health Care Bill,, because he felt it was wrong for the Country..This was against his Doctors orders, but he risked his life to place his final vote for what he thought would be best for his Country, not the popular Republican vote..It tells of his heroism, and great love for the people of Arizona, the people of America, his Family. And the great love he has for his Country. I am a Democrat, and do not agree with all of his policies, but I love this great American Hero.
May he continue to fight the fight. If ever we need men like John McCain, in our Country it is now.

A book written by a true American Hero!

My parents instilled in their children a responsibility to look past gender, race, religion, politics, etc. when seeking understanding of another person. It was apparent that to grow ourselves, we needed to learn of other ways of seeing people, places and things. I think that’s why I was so eager to read John McCain’s The Restless Wave. I always viewed him as a man of principles and honesty. I never felt the need to, nor did I always agree with his viewpoints, but then I never felt that he had the need to agree with anyone else’s either. He is a man of principle. This book did not disappoint me at all. It confirmed my vision of him. It is fascinating and enlightening to be behind the scenes of the current events of our time. I must say that this country is a better place because of men like John McCain. I needed to be reminded of that today, in this political maelstrom that we find ourselves in.

Thank you Senator McCain.

...and I’m a lifelong Democrat.
