This book is a message for people struggling through life and looking to bring a positive change to their lives. This story is loosely based on Michael Curtis' life. The story begins by telling us about a young farm boy who has big ambitions and the willpower to succeed. As he grows, he becomes an ace pilot and attains a black belt in Karate, eventually becoming the Grandmaster. He ultimately worked hard until he landed a journey into working with the secret way of the Pentagon and became the first recruit of the U.S. Secret Service.

This book talks about all the highs and lows of Jeff Cox's life as he understands that no one can be trusted in his field of work and that to achieve new heights, you must do everything in your power to reach them. He is not a "go with the flow" type of person; rather, he is the kind to never back down from a challenge. The kind who runs at breakneck speed as he advances toward his goals, not caring about any obstacles that come his way. This is the strength and courage that Michael Curtis portrays in his book, First Elite One.
