Description

**An inspiring memoir from the front lines of history by award-winning* **** 60 Minutes *****correspondent Scott Pelley** Don’t ask the meaning of life. Life is asking, what’s the meaning of you? With this provocative question, *Truth Worth Telling* introduces us to unforgettable people who discovered the meaning of their lives in the historic events of our times. A *60 Minutes* correspondent and former anchor of the *CBS Evening News* , Scott Pelley writes as a witness to events that changed our world. In moving, detailed prose, he stands with firefighters at the collapsing World Trade Center on 9/11, advances with American troops in combat in Afghanistan and Iraq, and reveals private moments with presidents (and would-be presidents) he’s known for decades. *Truth Worth Telling* offers a resounding defense of free speech and a free press as the rights that guarantee all others. For readers who believe values matter and truth is worth telling, Pelley writes, “I have written this book for you.”
