Below the Zone

General Merrill A. "Tony" McPeak was the 14th chief of staff of the US Air Force. In BELOW THE ZONE, he takes readers on a one-of-a-kind journey through the 1970s and 1980s, two decades he spent climbing the promotion ladder from major to four-star general. It's a book about leadership and management, individualism and collaboration, in an organization that had to meet high performance standards, as the US continued its long confrontation with the Soviet Union.
