Publisher Description
Dan Woolley—who spent 65 hrs trapped beneath the rubble of Haiti's Hotel Montana—recounts his experience living through the 7.0 Haiti earthquake in Unshaken: Rising from the rubble of Haiti's Hotel Montana. After a last-minute hotel switch, no one, not even Dan's wife, knew where he was staying while in Haiti. Trapped in total darkness for nearly three days, with a broken foot, his leg ripped open and a head injury, Dan battled despair, dehydration, anger with God and doubt over whether he would live to see his wife and two young sons again. Woolley had allowed his faith and marriage to weaken in the busyness of life. His entrapment forced him to think about what really mattered.

"Makes you think about how you're living your life on a daily basis. Would I be ready to die? What would be my "unfinished business"? What would I be thinking about while trapped for 65 hours? Can't read this book without believing in miracles but also questioning why some are saved and some aren't."

" My VCHS classmate's true ordeal surviving the earthquake in Haiti. "

" I followed the rescue of those under the collapsed Hotel Montana in Haiti in real time, thanks to the Internet, so this book -- though not particularly well written -- was interesting to me. "

" A page turner, but I felt that Woolley could have leveraged his experience to talk more about Compassion International in Haiti and less about his mentally ill wife at home. "
