Description

The inspirational autobiography of the hero pilot who landed a crippled flight in New York's Hudson River -- now a major motion picture starring Tom Hanks.

On January 15, 2009, the world witnessed a remarkable emergency landing when Captain "Sully" Sullenberger skillfully glided US Airways Flight 1549 onto the Hudson River, saving the lives of all 155 passengers and crew. His cool actions not only averted tragedy but made him a hero and an inspiration worldwide. His story is now a major motion picture from director/producer Clint Eastwood and stars Tom Hanks, Laura Linney and Aaron Eckhart.

Sully's story is one of dedication, hope, and preparedness, revealing the important lessons he learned through his life, in his military service, and in his work as an airline pilot. It reminds us all that, even in these days of conflict, tragedy and uncertainty, there are values still worth fighting for -- that life's challenges can be met if we're ready for them.

"His fascinating and deservedly praised memoir reflects on his childhood love for planes and an outstanding 42-year career as a pilot -- as well as how he and his family coped with the onslaught of sudden celebrity." -- Publishers Weekly
