Resumen del Editor

From the front lines in Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, and other conflict zones to the base of the burning Twin Towers on 9/11 to the eye of countless hurricanes, Rick Leventhal chronicles some of the most amazing stories he’s covered in his thirty-five years as a news reporter, anchor, and Senior Correspondent—with some life lessons thrown in along the way.

Part memoir and part leadership manifesto, Chasing Catastrophe empowers those who are ready to work hard to overcome adversity and achieve their goals. In this book, Rick Leventhal shares some incredible highlights and some of the most challenging moments of a career spanning thirty-five years.

Rick shares what it was like to sleep in the dirt in the Iraqi desert; to stand at the base of the Twin Towers in flames and run from the smoke cloud when they fell; to face a Category 5 hurricane; to be on scene when one of America’s most cheered and respected race car drivers crashed and died; to hurry to the frozen Hudson River from Midtown after Captain Sully landed his plane on its icy surface; to separate fact from fiction on the fly and figure out what could be reported—and what couldn’t; and to be in awe meeting some of the most famous people in America, only to learn they were fans of his work.

Yikes!

So many stories and some seemingly very kismet assignments to many stories and some unfortunate catastrophes. How wonderful to be behind the scenes with you and get answers to the amazing stories we had questions about. Thanks Rick!

Loved it

This book was really good. Nice look behind the scenes at the big stories. Very impressed and wish he was still doing the news. I am very happy for his retirement though. Two thumbs up 👍🏼👍🏼

Fantastic look at history by someone who was there

I was mesmerized by Leventhal's review of world events. I watched them live on TV, he was there. Aided by his volumes of "reporter's notebooks," I, as a listener, felt nothing was left out and even enjoyed the side stories never before reported. I actually couldn't stop listening and having it in my library I will listen to it again.
