The Destined Hour: The Hostage Crisis and One Family's Ordeal

Hardcover. [8], 328 p. Index. Barry and Barbara Rosen are two extraordinarily attractive young Americans from different family and religious backgrounds who attained sudden prominence when he was taken hostage in Iran and she desperately sought to do all she could to obtain her husband's release. He was among the few hostages to have known and genuinely cared for Iran, its culture, and its people before the revolution; and he tells with remarkable candor of his emotional reaction to his captivity. She, who had lived a very sheltered life until the hostage ordeal brought her to public attention, has a number of straightforward comments about exploitation by the American communications media and frustration by government bureaucracies. But, above all, this is an intensely personal account of the strains suffered by a family directly involved in the trauma.at the turn of this decade." Very good in good dust jacket. DJ has some wear, soiling, and edge tears. First edition. First edition [stated]. Presumed first printing. Artikel-Nr. 66844
