The Untold Story Behind TARGETED: BEIRUT


Listen Later

This month, the tables are turned when New York Times bestselling author Annie Jacobsen joins the show as guest-host to interview Jack and James M. Scott to discuss TARGETED: BEIRUT - THE 1983 MARINE BARRACKS BOMBING AND THE UNTOLD ORIGIN STORY OF THE WAR ON TERROR. 

BEIRUT 1983: At dawn on Sunday, October 23, 1983, a truck laden with explosives crashes into the headquarters and barracks building of the U.S. Marine Corps peacekeeping force in Beirut, Lebanon, killing 241 American servicemen in what was the largest non-nuclear explosion on record. What followed is one of the greatest rescue stories in history.

Jack Carr is the #1 New York Times bestselling author of THE TERMINAL LIST Series, and host of the DANGER CLOSE podcast and the JACK CARR BOOK CLUB podcast. 

James M. Scott is a Pulitzer Prize finalist and former Nieman Fellow at Harvard. James is the author of BLACK SNOW, RAMPAGE, TARGET TOKYO, THE WAR BELOW, and The Attack on the Liberty.
