[By MItchell Zuckoff ] 13 Hours: The Inside Account of What Really Happened In Benghazi (Paperback)【2018】by MItchell Zuckoff (Author)

by Book*Sense

13 Hours presents, for the first time ever, the true account of the events of September 11, 2012, when terrorists attacked the US State Department Special Mission Compound and a nearby CIA station called the Annex in Benghazi, Libya. A team of six American security operators fought to repel the attackers and protect the Americans stationed there. Those men went beyond the call of duty, performing extraordinary acts of courage and heroism, to avert tragedy on a much larger scale. This is their personal account, never before told, of what happened during the thirteen hours of that now-infamous attack.

[Nikolozi · Rating 4 out of 5]

This was my first time reading a nonfiction book based on real events, and it completely exceeded my expectations. I had already watched 13 H and since I really enjoyed the movie, it became my biggest motivation to pick up the book. While the film delivers incredible action and tension, the book offers a much deeper understanding of the people behind the events, their thoughts, emotions, and the difficult decisions they had to make. The writing style is straightforward yet incredibly immersive, almost making you feel like you’re listening to the men tell their own stories rather than reading a typical history book. Knowing that every event actually happened makes every chapter even more intense. More than just a military account, it’s a powerful story of courage, loyalty, and sacrifice under impossible circumstances. Whether you’re interested in military history or not, this is a gripping and unforgettable read that will stay with you long after you finish it.
