This book was so special to me becuase I have known George Burk for over 5 years. All of us have bad things happen to us. Usually these are short lived. George was in a plane crash that has lingering effects that will be with him always. Yet he is one of the nicest, most genuine people I have ever known. He has a wonderfully positive outlook on life. As I always tell him, he is MY TRUE HERO. I highly recommend this book to everyone. Read the story of a man who went through a tough situation and survived to become a wonderful human being. I have given a copy of this book to many friends and relatives as gifts. A MUST READ!

I had the pleasure of seeing George speak at an employee All Hands meeting where I purchased his book. I was moved by George's presentation, but later while reading the book it all CLICKED! I have a renewed appreciation for life and respect for other's. The combined experience has brought the quality of my life to a new level. Thanks George, you're a pretty special guy.

After meeting the author in person,reading his book was as powerful as listening to him speak.Mr.Burk takes you on a journey that only a true survivor would attempt. His stop at the Bridge is the starting point for us all !

This is what 'The Bridge Never Crossed' gave me - perspective and renewed appreciation. Reading George's amazing story of survival and triumph will give you an appreciation for what you have in life and what you take for granted. His experiences certainly provide one with a new perspective from which to view the daily challenges faced by most of us. Those challenges suddenly seem minor and insignificant in the context of George's story. I'm in awe of what he has overcome, of how deep his reserve of strength was and how he found a silver lining to a nightmare. His story will get you through those "bad days".

George Burke's survival story was first heard by me on a radio talk show. His book is as awsome as his discussion was, and I was profoundly moved by his courage, determination, and humor. I have often recommended his book to my "special needs" clients. His story gives much needed encouragement to them, and a new perspective in facing the challenges of living, despite tragic events. I was so impressed by George, that he will now be the keynote speaker at the 6th Annual Joint Services Special Needs Awareness Forum in Norfolk, Virginia.

George Burk has written an inspiring book recounting his experience as the sole survivor of an airplane crash. I couldn't put it down. His spiritual struggles and insights are extremely moving. He is a true hero and reading his story is compelling.

This story has been and will continue to be a true inspiration to anyone who reads it. I have known Captain Burk for thirteen years and was familiar with his experiences. The book provided me an in depth realization of the chain of miracles that lead to Mr. Burk's survival of such a tragic event. The Bridge Never Crossed causes the reader to reflect on what is really important in life and realize that God has a plan for each of us. I have purchased several copies to share with family and friends. George has been one of the most influential people in my life. He is constant reminder that each of us control our own destiny.

This wonderful, courageous and inspirational story makes a perfect gift for anyone on your list - mothers, fathers, sisters, brothers, co-workers, friends, enemies, ANYONE! Capt. George Burk is a truly remarkable, amazing man with a truly remarkable, amazing story...a story that I defy ANYONE not to be moved by. Capt. Burk was a recent guest on our radio show...and never has any guest had the impact on my me and my co-host, Debbie...but our producer, the engineer - EVERYONE IN THE BUILDING! George Burk is one of the most incredible people I have ever had the great opportunity to come into contact with. I will say right now...if you haven't read this book - read it NOW!! You will not be sorry - you will be changed.

Having heard George speak on several different occasions, I can truly say that once again, his story leaves me speechless. His fight for life and courage are beyond belief of what a human can endure. His faith and will to live are inspirational. George is a true survivor in every sense of the word.
