About the Book

"Command Presence offers the reader genuine American grit in going head-on with adversity and winning, whether it's the author's tenacity in overcoming dyslexia or in facing down adversaries from corrupt union figures to raging fires. Frank Ricci has an important story to tell, and it will help the reader learn needed lessons and be better off for doing so." --John Gizzi, White House Correspondent, Newsmax "Frank offers great insight and wisdom on leadership shared through stories of his career and life successes and failures, highs and lows, with easy-to-read yet profound examples and lessons in self-accountability, self-responsibility, and action that can be applied to your leadership style." --Alex A. Rivera MPA, CFO, CTO Fire Chief, West Point U.S. Military Academy "Frank Ricci brilliantly yet simply explores the critical tenants of leadership, duty, and accountability using his own real-world experience in the field and as a leader. His story is one for all Americans to embrace and learn from, and his tying of civic duty and leadership to that of our founding fathers makes this a read for the history books!" --E. Garrett Bewkes IV, Publisher, National Review
