It is not the critic who counts, not the man who points out how the strong man stumbled, or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena; whose face is marred by the dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions and spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best, knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who, at worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly; so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory or defeat.
In The Arena: Geoff Metcalf interviews with doers of deeds
and over one million other books are available for Amazon Kindle.

For his newest book "In The Arena", Metcalf draws upon his unparalleled interview skills--- honed through years of experience behind the microphone.
He has made it his practice throughout his career to seek out those intrepid individuals with the courage to make a positive change in our world; and give them a forum when hosts of lesser
character have shunned them.
Unlike some talk-show hosts, Metcalf is not a "screamer", and treats his guests with respect and dignity; as a result he gets
incredible interviews you will not find anywhere else.
"In The Arena" is an unmatched collection of transcripts taken directly from Geoff's radio shows; it's the best of the best.
Gary Aldrich, Col. David Hackworth, Ann Coulter, Tammy Bruce...
they're all here, along with many other courageous souls who are
really making a difference.
If you care about the way the world works; if you have ever hoped for better...then you owe it to yourself to read the stories of those who have been "in the arena".

The "Terri" that's giving him 5 stars sounds very much like the Terri who bans (and deletes) anyone questioning Geoff on his forum.
Geoff, what happened to "Veto the Governor", The Eagle campaign you were going to spearhead after after 9-11, what happened to your World Net Daily column? Your KSFO gig? Your Sacramento Kalif Radio gig? What's happened past all the big talk? I do agree with Geoff that "It's not WHO's right or wrong...it's WHAT's right or wrong", but the world is changed by those that do, not those that fail.
Geoff's skill is talking big then failing with follow and his books are simply more of the same. Save your cash for someone an author that matters.
