Summary: Today's Heroes
Review: What a thrill it was to read. Having read Mr. Stewart's article in the New Yorker, I was aware of some of Rick's life, but the book filled in so much more of a modern day hero.As the sister of Mr. Hill, I was aware of Rick and their friendship for many years, but having the full picture painted for me by Mr. Stewart was certainly an eye opening experience.Rick has truly been a bright light to come out of such a tragedy. Thank you for allowing us to share in this great man's life.Very well written and riviting, I could not put the book down until I had finished it. I highly recommend this book to anyone that wants to feel good about an American Hero.

Review: While the subject, Rick, is great, the writing just doesn't flow. Just seems to be thrown together to get in on the 9-11 sales/marketing bandwagon. Really wanted to like this book but it left me feeling that the story of Rick should have been written so much better. Felt like I was reading a newpaper article thrown together to make a deadline.
