4.0 out of 5 stars
Not a dry eye in the house,
This review is from: Angels on the Bonfire (Paperback)
John Donne wrote "...any man's death diminishes me, because I am involved in Mankind..." So moved was Pamela S. Freni by the 1999 Texas A&M Bonfire tragedy that she decided to pen this book. Freni, a 1977 graduate of A&M, marvelously recreates the lives of the students lost as she buttresses her story with historical facts about the unique nature of Texas A&M. The work is a remarkable tribute not only to the dead and injured, but the rapid response by the university, concerned local citizens, Texans, alumni, politicians, and people from around the world. The goodness of the human spirit shines within these pages. And, although death does diminish us all, Freni's book, in sum, echoes the words of many of the grief-stricken parents who suffered the early demise of their sons and daughters -- grateful for the opportunity, however transient, of raising their progeny and watching them blossom as Aggies. Keep a box of tissues handy as you read.
