Synopsis

Clint Emerson, retired Navy SEAL and author of the bestselling 100 Deadly Skills, presents an explosive, darkly funny, and often twisted account of being part of an elite team of operatives whose mission was to keep America safe by whatever means necessary.

Clint Emerson is the only SEAL ever inducted into the International Spy Museum. Operating from the shadows, with an instinct for running towards trouble, his unique skill set made him the perfect hybrid operator.

Emerson spent his career on the bleeding edge of intelligence and operations, often specializing in missions that took advantage of subterfuge, improvisation, the best in recon and surveillance tech to combat the changing global battlefield. MacGyvering everyday objects into working spyware was routine, and fellow SEALs referred to his activities simply as “special shit.” His parameters were: find, fix, and finish—and of course, leave no trace.

The Right Kind of Crazy is unlike any military memoir you’ve ever read because Emerson is upfront about the fact that what makes you a great soldier and sometimes hero doesn’t always make you the best guy—but it does make for damn good stories.

Goodreads review by Matias on January 30, 2020

Interesting topic in general. Some cool stories but a lot of redactions, so no real context to many tales. The issue may be the writers self absorbed style and constant need to come across as cool, tough, smart. The cringe starts in the self pity section towards the end where he goes through how poo......more

What a great book. This book had a different take on telling the story of military life. I've read a few other books from SEALs and I have to say that this is one of my favorites. The author is equally entertaining and informative, although I think some people may find his smart ass attitude offensi......more

Goodreads review by Jesse on March 23, 2021

A surprisingly enjoyable read. This book lacked the pretentious and self-aggrandizing nature of many of the SEAL books of the last decade or so. Emerson’s style of writing makes him seem very relatable though his life has been far from normal. Accompanying the story is a series of comic book-style i......more
