Get Me Carlucci: A Daughter Recounts Her Father''s Legacy of Service

By (author): Frank Carlucci Kristin Carlucci Weed

Once called Washingtons ultimate survivor by The Washington Post, Frank C. Carlucci III served six presidents, traveled across the world on behalf of his country, and ultimately rose to prominence as secretary of defense. Through every era of his extraordinary and varied career, there was a common refrain: Get Me Carlucci!

Get Me Carlucci combines Carluccis own words with interviews from his contemporaries and context from his daughter, Kristin Carlucci Weed, who completes her late fathers story while keeping his characteristic deadpan humor and tell-it-like-it-is sensibility, no frills and no fuss.

Starting with Carluccis childhood and moving to his pivotal roles in the Congo Crisis of the 1960s and the Portugals transition to democracy in the 1970s, Get Me Carlucci offers a unique look at the life of one of Americas most important behind-the-scenes actors. While Carlucci was not a seeker of the spotlight, his work shaped the world and his time as secretary of defense defined American Cold War policy.

The president thought the world of him, said Carluccis friend and mentee Colin Powell. I thought the world of him. Now read Frank Carluccis story in his own words.
