520 1 $a"On September 6,1970, the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine hijacked four airliners bound from Europe for New York. One was taken to Cairo and blown up only seconds after its passengers escaped. Two others landed on the desert floor northeast of Amman, Jordan, and a three-week hostage drama ensued. After nearly a week on one of the planes, seventeen-year-old David Raab was separated from his mother and siblings and taken to a refugee camp and then Amman, where he was held captive with thirty-one other Americans during the Jordanian civil war." "This is the story of Raab's capture and survival. Combining entries from his diary as a seventeen-year-old hostage and an in-depth exploration of the political conditions affecting his capture, Raab sheds new light on Black September. He reveals never before published archival material surrounding the hijackings, proving that the Soviets were behind Syria's invasion of Jordan - as Richard Nixon and Henry Kissinger suspected but historians doubted - and he shows that during the hostage crisis, King Hussein requested Israel's help in saving his throne." "Raab weaves a historical narrative to illustrate how the single most politically significant terrorist event prior to September 11 changed the face of the Middle East."--Jacket.
520 1 $a"On September 6, 1970, the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) hijacked four airliners bound from Europe for New York. Two were hijacked to the desert floor northeast of Amman, Jordan, where a three-week drama began. Seventeen-year-old David Raab was on the TWA flight with his mother and younger siblings but, after almost a week aboard the plane, was separated from them and taken to a refugee camp and then an apartment in Amman where he was held hostage through a civil war. This is the breathtaking story of his capture and survival, told here for the first time. Book jacket."--Jacket.
