Home Away From Home

Kandahar 1999, Manhattan 2001, Abbottabad 2011. A plot recruited in the city where an Indian airliner sat hostage, a Tuesday that fell out of a blue sky, and a republic that climbed the stairs, stormed the cockpit, and hunted the man for ten years until the hunt was done.

A cinematic, fact-faithful narrative of how a thin line of farmers with muskets became the oldest living democracy — and the arsenal that armed the free world.

How a swampy townsite on a sluggish bayou was willed into one of the great cities of the world — a narrative history of Houston, its oil, its ghosts, and the millions who made it home.

A stranger in an empty terminal, everything that mattered carried in one bag, and the few hours that revealed what a uniform in this country can mean. A true story, retold for the man who wore one.

How the United States tore itself into two countries, fought the bloodiest war in its history, and stitched itself back together — and why a quiet morning in Galveston still carries the weight of it all.
