A story of love, heroism and September 11th. This is the story of Rick Rescorla, a Cornish-American who was a true hero many times over. Born in Cornwall he served with the Army as a Brit and then in Vietnam as an American Citizen. There have been several television documentaries on Rick since his tragic death in the attacks on the World Trade Center on September 11th, 2001. This book does an excellent job of tying his life story together. Heart of a Soldier shows us bravery under fire, loyalty to one's comrades, and the miracles of finding happiness late in life. In charge of security for Morgan Stanley, Rick Rescorla successfully got 2,700 of its employees out of the South Tower. He went back in and began climbing the stairs, looking for stragglers when the tower collapsed taking his life. An inspiring and unforgettable story. Hard cover, dust jacket, 321 pages, $10
