Synopsis

Marian Fontana writes movingly about the death of her husband, firefighter Dave Fontana, in the World Trade Center attacks on 9/11 (their eighth wedding anniversary) and about her life since then. Fontana has become an advocate not only for the relatives of 9/11 victims--whose frustrating struggles with the bureaucracy are vividly detailed here--but for firefighters, whom she considers to be grossly underpaid and unappreciated by the city. She pleads their case in her compelling and unsentimental memoir.
