Visit the Oglethorpe County Library for an evening with Williamson Sintyl, author of Rising from the Rubble.
About the Book
Williamson was buried under a three-story building after it collapsed during the Haiti earthquake. For twenty-eight grueling hours, he was trapped without food or water, breathing in stale air. There are numerous books about near death experiences, but this is not one of those books. He knew he would live. He knew he would see the sunshine on his mother’s face and enjoy fresh air again. Rather than just write about the story of survival, he wanted to also write about what comes next. This book will give you amazing advice on how to rise from your own personal rubble that you are buried under to become a victor in life.
