Synopsis

This is the first major publication to salute the canines that served America in the recovery missions following the terrorists' strikes on America. A testament to man's best friend and his most critical role in American history, this book pays tribute to 78 canine heroes and their handlers, retelling their heart-stirring stories and photographically capturing many defining moments of the days that followed September 11th, 2001. Nona Kilgore Bauer, an award-winning canine journalist and author, interviewed the handlers who participated in the recovery efforts at the World Trade Centre, the Pentagon and the Fresh Kills Landfill, the site to which the remains of the fallen towers were transported. In addition to paying tribute to the dog-and-handler teams that were deployed after the attacks, Kennel Club Books supports the National Disaster Search Dog Foundation in its mission to produce certified search and rescue teams to protect America. A portion of the proceeds of this book will benefit the NDSDF.
