A Story About the Truest and Kindest People on Earth
I am also grateful to Jim Defede for writing this book to thank them for all of us.
My son and daughter-in-law were part of the mass of passengers stranded in Newfoundland after 9-11 and I will always be grateful to the Newfies for the loving way that they cared for them.

This book clearly shows how people the world over should be living their lives. Thank you Newfies.

Interesting Subject but Poorly Written
It tells of a true story unknown to many. I found this book to be extremely interesting. However, while the subject was excellent, the quality of the writing was poor. I would not conider this book a final product. It is similar to a draft, with words spelled incorrectly and improper grammar. The publishers should be ashamed for printing such a poor quality manuscript that had not been proof read.

The Best of Human Nature
The people behind 9/11 were expecting the worst of humanity to come about, instead the result was the best humanity. If you ever wanted to read a book that took the best part of human nature, you've found it. The people of Gander captured my heart and I would love to meet those wonderful people who took strangers in from around the world. This book will move you to tears and astound you in ways you never thought possible. The spirit of kindness is alive and well in Gander, Newfoundland. I love the United States, but we could learn a thing or two from these wonderful in what to do in the event of a tragedy. .
