I just received an email from Hatchett Book Group, the parent group of Little Brown Books, that published Marcus Luttrell’s book, Lone Survivor: The Eyewittness Account Of Operation Redwing and the Lost Heroes of SEAL Team 10, with more appearance dates for Marcus. At this time, it looks like there aren’t any book signings scheduled, but several appearances that you might want to make note of. This is what the Little Brown Publicity Department has announced.

A few more NATIONAL hits for LONE SURVIVOR!

8/16 – “FOX ACROSS AMERICA” Live Radio

8/20 – “O’Reilly Factor” on FOX-TV

8/20 – Live Webcast on ABC News.com

8/24 – Boxed Profile in People magazine

Note: we are still waiting on an air date for CBN’s 700 Club segment and

we are very close to confirming a segment on ABC’s “Nightline”

Stay tuned!

As I get more updates, I’ll post them here for everyone.

    Okay I know Terri was just making sure I was checking in on the blog.

    There is at least one confirmed book signing.

    The TEXAS Book Festival Nov 3 & 4.

    There will be an hour of interview with Marcus, and then it’s off to the tent to meet and greet Marcus, personally. The place for all those hand shakes, and hugs. He does a wonderful job with those hugs! and of course the hand shakes.

    Don’t forget to let us know if you want information for the BBQ, no I’m still not cooking, for Nov 3 in the Austin Area.

    does anyone have an email adress for Marcus because i would like to ask him to assit me with training to become a Navy SEAL

  7. Terri on October 16th, 2007 7:50 pm

    John, my suggestion is to contact Marcus through his publisher. The address is listed above your comment.

  8. John on October 16th, 2007 7:51 pm

    okay thanks very much.

  9. Terri on October 16th, 2007 7:53 pm

    You’re welcome. Have you read Marcus’s book? He goes into pretty good detail about what he did to train to become a SEAL, as well as details the training itself.

  10. John on October 17th, 2007 9:24 am

    i have read bits and pieces of his book. but have not had the time to read the entire book due to school and sports.

  11. Terri on October 17th, 2007 11:19 am

    I recommend reading it. Not only does he give you some insight in what the training entails, but it’s a fantastic book and should be a MUST READ for everyone.

  12. John on October 17th, 2007 5:20 pm

    The next time i have a chance i will pick the book up. But i remember seeing an interview with Marcus and recall him saying he would assit anyone who asked him if they wanted to be a Navy SEAL and are serious about doing it. I have wanted to be a Navy SEAL since i was 10 years old and watched the Towers fall and my Dad disappear to ground zero for 5 month.

  13. Terri on October 17th, 2007 5:26 pm

    I think you’ll be pleased that you did John. It’s a great book and a fantastic tribute to the Fallen Warriors of SEAL Team 10 and Operation Redwing. Hopefully you’ll hear something back by contacting him through the publisher.

  14. Sheri on October 24th, 2007 2:24 pm

    I Just finished reading Lone Survivor and would love to get the book autographed - any idea of any appearances? I agree with Marcus Luttrell’s feelings (get the media out and give the military free reign without fear of prosecution)and have recommended this book to many people!

  15. Terri on October 24th, 2007 2:51 pm

    The next appearance that I’m aware of Sheri is at the Texas Book Festival in Austin on November 3rd. I’m not aware of any after that.

  16. Sheri on October 24th, 2007 3:07 pm

    Do you have any details on this festival (ie. when, where, etc) or where I could go to get details?

  17. Terri on October 24th, 2007 3:11 pm

    Sheri, here’s the link to the article we posted about his appearance at the Book Festival. In the article is the link to the Texas Book Festival webpage.

    Will Marcus Luttrell be in the Ct Area in the future. Would love him to sign my book. Planning on buying it for each of my boys. He’s a true Hero and I also believe in his feeling about the media. Let the Armed Forces do their job the way they are supposed to - We are there to win and anything it takes. My son is in Iraq also and they should all be given the support they deserve. Sincerely Sharon

  19. Kelly on November 29th, 2007 1:32 pm

    Will Marcus be doing any book signings for Christmas?

  20. Terri on November 29th, 2007 2:00 pm

    Kelly, I’m not aware of any book signings that Marcus has scheduled before Christmas.

  21. Dylan on January 10th, 2008 8:53 pm

    I have really enjoyed his book, I really want to meet him do you know of any appearances.

  22. Nicholas La Carra on January 14th, 2008 6:16 pm

    Mr. Marcus Luttrell,
    I am 16 years old and I just finished reading your book. It was one of the best books i have ever read. Thank you for everything that you have done.

  23. Bradon Grondel on March 17th, 2008 9:41 pm

    Do you know any times when he might be coming to Washington State?
    This is an AMAZING book!!!
    I cannot express my gratitude enough for those Very Honorable Men.

    Mr. Luttrell,
    A friend I work with lent me your book to read. What you did in combat and more importantly the fact that you lived to tell the families what happened has had more of an impact on me than you will ever know. My son was killed in Iraq on 9-11-05. Being able to talk to the convoy commander and hear what really happened put a certain amount of closure to the whole deal. We were never able to see the body so you always wonder if this was real. Like in your case the media reported several different stories including one where he had been badly burned, which never happened. Reading through his paperwork when we finally got it all back I couldn’t believe what my kid had done or was even capable of. After reading your book and having my exact thoughts about the media and soldiers being charged with murder when getting back to the states for doing something that none of the people making the rules have the balls to do makes me sick. Having a second thought about what might happen is getting too many of our boys killed. I tell people the worst day of my life is behind me, between being told my oldest son had been killed and then telling his 15 year old brother that his brother would not be coming home. I can’t think of anything that will ever top that.We are loosing the cream of the crop, kids that are willing to give their lives to fight for people they don’t even know. Thank you sir for your service and fighting for our freedom you are more of a hero than you will ever know.

    I was wondering how to get a signed book by Mr. Luttrell. This book is the most amazing book my father and I have ever read and I wanted to get a signed book for my dad for his birthday. I don’t know what his plans are… but anywhere near Southern California would be amazing. Or if someone could get in touch with him and I could purchase and have it shipped. I’m willing to do anything!!! Thank you!

  26. Jason on May 15th, 2008 6:31 pm

    Mr. Luttrell,
    I just finished your book, and I dont have words to express how relieved I am that someone had the guts to write about how jacked up our rules of engagement are. I know from first hand experience how tied are hands are in situations. I may be only a Marine Grunt but I want you to know I have the utmost respect for you and your fallen brothers, just like mine. Thank you for fighting the good fight.

    Respectfully yours,

    Sgt. Jason Wallace USMC

    Having come from a family with a lot of military, and a great love and appreciation for all military personell, I knew I had to read his book. It’s hard for me to express to Mr. Luttrell how much gratitude he is owed! While reading his book I went through a range of emotions, for the loss of his brothers, a deep rage building up within me because of what these faceless taliban cowards had done to him and to so many other troops, to tears when Mr.Luttrell was met by another seal, in tears at the hospital. Mr.Luttrell, you are in every sense of the word, an American Hero!! May God bless you and all of our brothers and sisters in arms!
    Sincerely,
    Jeff in Idaho

    Marcus,

    Just finished your book in one sitting. Never have I cried reading anything until this morning. I have admired SEALs all my life as well as the special forces across all of our branches. As a Texan, now living very close to Coronado, I was happy to see in your book the same friends mentioned who gathered at your family ranch while you were missing are also the same personal friends of mine. Us Texans keep good company! It was an honor to be part of your story.
    Respectfully,

    Chris

    Thanks Mr. Luttrell for the helpful tips to help me train to become a SEAL. Since I was 8 years old I’ve always wanted to be a SEAL and never have I read a book that was so helpful to help me train. Thank you so much.

  30. Julie on June 25th, 2008 8:32 am

    Dear Mr. Luttrell,

    After seeing you on Glenn Beck, I bought your book for my husband for Christmas. He loved it, so I couldn’t resist reading it. I cried through many parts and I just feel safer knowing there are still great men like you out there fighting for our country. It was an honor to read it. Thank you for your service and thank your parents for raising such a great man.

    Julie
