Note Mark Rohr "provides an honest, day-to-day account of the responsibilities and decisions he had to make as Joplin's City Manager, including his personal role in assisting victims of the storm. The book is also a tribute to the 161 lives lost due to the storm, and is a heartfelt 'thank you' to the thousands of volunteers who came and continue to come to Joplin. [The author commends] the citizens of Joplin, [who] showed the world what miracles look like, in the form of real courage, determination, and compassion, [and proved that] Joplin is a miracle of the human spirit."--Publisher.
