Interviews from survivors, rescuers and the relatives of those killed answer questions that until now have remained hidden.

How were the rescuers able to pull people out of the wreckage alive over 12 hours after impact? Most importantly...what was the cause of the crash? Author Richard M. Jones has dedicated his life to researching disasters of historical significance that have been forgotten.
