AN INSTANT #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER An affecting singular story...a bracing tale of life
on the edge of death. -Kirkus Reviews When veteran war reporter Benjamin Hall woke up in Kyiv
on the morning of March 14 2022 he had no idea that within hours Russian bombs would nearly
end his life. As a journalist for Fox News Hall had worked in dangerous war zones like Syria
and Afghanistan but with three young daughters at home life on the edge was supposed to be a
thing of the past. Yet when Russia viciously attacked Ukraine in February 2022 Hall quickly
volunteered to go. A few weeks later while on assignment Hall and his crew were blown up in a
Russian strike. With Hall himself gravely injured and stuck in Kyiv it was unclear if he would
make it out alive. This is the story of how he survived-a story that continues to this day. For
the first time Hall shares his experience in full-from his ground-level view of the war to his
dramatic rescue to his arduous and ongoing recovery. Going inside the events that have
permanently transformed him Hall recalls his time at the front lines of our world's conflicts
exploring how his struggle to step away from war reporting led him back one perilous last time.
Featuring nail-biting accounts from the many people across multiple countries who banded
together to get him to safety Hall offers a stunning look at complex teamwork and heartfelt
perseverance that turned his life into a mission. Through it all Hall's spirit has remained
undaunted buoyed by that remarkable corps of people from around the world whose collective
determination ensured his survival. Evocative harrowing and deeply moving Saved is a
powerful memoir of family and friends of life and healing and of how to respond when you are
tested in ways you never thought possible. Benjamin Hall's memoir includes a 16-page color
photo insert.
