The first book in Ryan Holiday's Stoic Virtues series. Using stories of figures from Charles de Gaulle and Florence Nightingale to Martin Luther King Jr., Holiday examines courage, the first of the four Stoic virtues. He looks at the fear that holds people back, the physical and moral courage needed to act, and the heroism of putting oneself on the line for others.
