	The lives of the heroes considered here span the last 500 years. They are diverse. They have failed. They have been ridiculed. They have endured wars. They have been enslaved. They have been in prisons. They have triumphed. Sample their fascinating lives:


	Learn the BASIC FACTS about each hero. Delight in their HUMANITY. Ponder their 'WARTS'. Consider their stinging FAILURES. Marvel at their DEFINING MOMENTS.


	Wait! There is much more than that to be learned here. Are the heroes of history relevant today? Can heroes inspire us? Can their lives improve our lives spiritually? Can their lives improve our lives materially? Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes! Learn the five VALUES that made them excel.


	Alexander Solzhenitsyn Writer
