13 Hours: The Inside Account of What Really Happened In Benghazi
Description
The harrowing, true account from the brave men on the ground who fought back
during the Battle of Benghazi. 13 Hours presents, for the first time ever, the
true account of the events of September 11, 2012, when terrorists attacked the
US State Department Special Mission Compound and a nearby CIA station called
the Annex in Benghazi, Libya. A team of six American security operators fought
to repel the attackers and protect the Americans stationed there. Those men
went beyond the call of duty, performing extraordinary acts of courage and
heroism, to avert tragedy on a much larger scale. This is their personal
account, never before told, of what happened during the thirteen hours of that
now-infamous attack. 13 Hours sets the record straight on what happened during
a night that has been shrouded in mystery and controversy. Written by New York
Times bestselling author Mitchell Zuckoff, this riveting book takes readers
into the action-packed story of heroes who laid their lives on the line for
one another, for their countrymen, and for their country. 13 Hours is a
stunning, eye-opening, and intense book–but most importantly, it is the
truth. The story of what happened to these men–and what they accomplished–is
unforgettable. Read more
