The Hero Next Door: Stories of Patriotism and Purpose
by Martha Raddatz
ABC News veteran Martha Raddatz gathers a dozen portraits of post-9/11 service members and the people who love them. It's narrative nonfiction about endurance: what pushes ordinary people to do extraordinary things, and what they keep carrying long after the moment itself has passed.
