'The reader cannot fail to be humbled by the extraordinary bravery, usually in the most challenging circumstances, described in these pages.' HRH Princess Alexandra, President the Royal Humane Society 'Some pass by, because it's easier, safer. Others step in, because it's the right thing to do. This remarkable book reminds us what the best of us look like.' Hugh Bonneville, Actor 'The very best of humanity - here are the stories' Gyles Brandreth, author, broadcaster and former MP 'For the first 50 years of my life, nothing happened that was at all noteworthy, and then ....
