On Wings of Eagles : The Inspiring True Story of One Man's Patriotic Spirit--And His Heroic Mission to Save His Countrymen
#1 bestselling author Ken Follett tells the inspiring true story of the Middle East hostage crisis that began in 1978, and of the unconventional means one American used to save his countrymen. . . .
