The day the world came to town : 9/11 in Gander, Newfoundland
DeFede, Jim.
Adult Nonfiction HV6432 .D44 2002
From Publishers' Weekly:
Journalist Defede calls our attention to a sidelight of the events of September 11, when the town of Gander (pop. 10,000) was overwhelmed by more than 6,500 air travelers grounded when U.S. airspace was shut down. For a week, DeFede relates, the locals provided food, shelter and supplies and reassurance; "they placed their lives on hold for a group of strangers and asked nothing in return." Here the generous Newfoundlanders get due recognition. Photos. (Sept.) (c) Copyright PWxyz, LLC. All rights reserved
