The Red Bandanna by Tom Rinaldi

This is a biography of 9/11 hero Welles Crowther. The book, filled with many interviews of family, begins by telling the story of Welles's childhood. Quickly the book zooms in on one choice he made in the final minutes of his life. This book is sad but also thought-provoking, and I recommend this book to everyone.

This book will be published in early September. Through the Fresh Ink Program at Porter Square Books, I read it for free as an Advanced-Readers-Copy to review it. Again, you definitely should read it when it's published.
