Abstract "A family plants an American elm on the Oklahoma prairie just as the city is taking root--and the little tree grows as Oklahoma City grows until 9:02 a.m. on April 19, 1995, the day America fell silent at the hands of one of its own. As rubble from the Alfred P. Murrah Building is cleared, the charred tree--its branches tattered and filled with evidence--faces calls that it be cut down. The only obstacle: a few people who marvel that, like them, it is still there at all. The next spring when the first new leaf appears proving the tree is alive, word spreads like a prairie wildfire through the city and the world. And the tree, now a beacon of hope and strength, is given the name: The Survivor Tree."--Amazon.com.
