About this title

Synopsis

In Quiet Courage: The definitive account of Flight 93 and its aftermath, Dr. Kashurba uses first-person accounts to describe how a community in rural America came together to respond to the first battle of the war on terrorism. Since 9/11, history continues to unfold. Quiet Courage provides up-to-date accounts from Flight 93 families and citizens of Somerset County, Pennsylvania, committed to establishing a permanent memorial to the heroes of Flight 93. Overlying these first-hand accounts are the details of what occurred onboard UAL 93, the 9/11 plot and the ongoing investigations that are still front-page news. This is an American story using American voices showing American values at their best.
