All Americans remember where they were on September 11, 2001. When the Pentagon was attacked on 9-11, 184 heroes as little as 10 feet away from author Dan Holdridge were killed. Holdridge relates every detail of the attack and his suspenseful escape, as well as the angel who rescued him from the Pentagon that day. He weaves the stories of colorful family members and a country childhood into the horrible events of 9-11. Although he writes that he can never again be the same person, he has devoted the rest of his life to telling the story of his 184 colleagues, and the cigarette and clipboard that saved his life. Dan Holdridge was a prayer away from death, and his tale is as heartwarming and tear-jerking as it is riveting.
