A wonderful book! A testament to the kindness of strangers and the good in people. Every American remembers where they were when 9/11 events occurred and news spread. But this is the story of several lives affected from a different perspective. Americans who could not get home as American airspace was closed and many passengers diverted and afraid terrorists were on some of these planes. Many of these people with families and friends in New York fearing the worst. The people of Newfoundland took in thousands of these people and treated them like their own family. An emotional read on many levels.
