X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:<p>Don&rsquo\;t forget to register for this i
 ncredibly moving virtual chat with&nbsp\;New York Times&nbsp\;bestselling 
 author Garrett Graff! An expert at capturing the human drama\, Graff will 
 speak about his body of work with particular focus on his oral histories\,
 &nbsp\;The Only Plane in the Sky: An Oral History of 9/11&nbsp\;and&nbsp\;
 When the Sea Came Alive: An Oral History of D-Day.&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>Much has
  been written and said about the terrorist attacks of September 11\, 2001\
 , and the profound impact they had on America and the world. But those nam
 es\, stories\, and memories have never before been collected in one place 
 to tell the full\, 360-degree story of what happened that day\, and in the
  days after. In&nbsp\;The Only Plane in the Sky\, award-winning journalist
  Garrett Graff draws on never-before-published transcripts\, recently decl
 assified documents\, and original interviews and stories from nearly five 
 hundred government officials\, first responders\, witnesses\, survivors\, 
 friends\, and family members to paint the most comprehensive\, minute-by-m
 inute account of the September 11 attacks yet\, all told in the words of t
 hose who experienced that dramatic and tragic day.&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>In his m
 ost recent work\,&nbsp\;When the Sea Came Alive\, Graff explores the full 
 impact of a world changing event: D-Day\, one of history&rsquo\;s greatest
  and most unbelievable military and human triumphs. Though the full campai
 gn lasted just over a month\, the surprise landing of over 150\,000 Allied
  troops on the morning of June 6\, 1944\, is understood to be the moment t
 hat turned the tide for the Allied forces and ultimately led to the defeat
  of the Axis powers in World War II. This book dives deep into the complex
 ities&mdash\;from the secret creation of landing plans by top government a
 nd military officials and organization of troops\, to the moment the boat 
 doors opened to reveal the beach where men fought for their lives and the 
 future of the free world.</p>\nhttps://bplwv.libnet.info/event/11764599
