Jessica DuLong, SAVED AT THE SEAWALL: Stories from the September 11 Boat Lift

Zibby hosts a special podcast in honor of the 20th anniversary of the attacks on September 11th, 2001 with author, mariner, historian, and journalist Jessica DuLong. Jessica’s latest book, Saved at the Seawall, tells the story of the boat lift in the New York City harbor on 9/11 and beyond. Jessica shares what drove her to take action and assist on the water, as well as the individual narratives of so many other who put humanity first to help others in need in the immediate aftermath of the crashes. Jessica and Zibby also discuss their own grieving journeys and how we can apply the lessons learned back then to our divided world today.Purchase on Amazon or Bookshop.Amazon: https://amzn.to/3DYXqTaBookshop: https://bit.ly/3jUeMbH** Want more?
