5.0 out of 5 stars McCain A&E video is better than Saving Private Ryan, August 24, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Biography - John McCain: American Maverick [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This video tells the amazing story of Senator John McCain (a current presidential contender). It tells about McCain's amazing life and the way that he, and the other POWs in the Hanoi Hilton, "returned with honor." It was one of the most watched A&E Biographies ever and is a video that every patriotic American or veteran will enjoy. --Justin Oppmann
