Dispatches from the Edge meets In an Instant in this dramatic
memoir of war, family, resilience, and recovery from Benjamin Hall,
the Fox News journalist who was gravely injured by a Russian drone
attack in the early days of the invasion of Ukraine. Over the
course of his career, seasoned war correspondent Benjamin Hall
covered some of the deadliest armed conflicts of our time,
including violence in Syria, Libya, and Somalia. But with a young
family at home, Hall chose to trade life on the edge for a safer
beat covering the US Department of State. Then Russia viciously
attacked Ukraine in February 2022. Though he knew the dangers of
war and was no longer traveling to war zones, Hall quickly accepted
the assignment. He had to tell this story-Americans needed to
understand the gravity of this stunning, world-altering conflict.
Though he had witnessed and survived years of violence, on March
14, a month into the invasion of Ukraine, Hall and his crew were
hit by a Russian drone strike, killing his cameraman and a fellow
journalist and gravely injuring him. Stuck inside the warzone, it
was feared Hall might not make it out alive. This is the story of
how he survived-including his dramatic rescue and his arduous and
ongoing recovery. For the first time, Hall shares his experiences
in full-of his time in Ukraine and on the frontlines of the world's
most perilous conflicts, of the terrible attack that nearly killed
him, of the love of his family, of the strength and perseverance it
has taken to endure multiple surgeries and learn how to walk again.
Going inside the events that have permanently transformed him, Hall
speaks honestly about the struggle to step away from the peril and
how his years of experience kept him safe-until they failed him.
And he pays tribute to American service members who not only helped
save him, but decades earlier rescued his father, who, during World
War II at age twelve, escaped a Japanese camp in the Philippines
and eventually reached American GIs. Most remarkably, Hall's spirit
has remained undaunted throughout his ordeal-a spirit of hope and
positivity which infuses this exceptional story. Evocative,
harrowing, and deeply moving, Untitled is a powerful memoir of
family and perseverance, of life and healing, and of what to do
when you are tested in ways you never thought possible. Benjamin
Hall's memoir includes a 16-page color photo insert.
