As Rwanda was thrown into chaos during the 1994 genocide, Rusesabagina, a hotel manager, turned the luxurious Hotel Milles Collines into a refuge for more than 1,200 Tutsi and moderate Hutu refugees, while fending off their would-be killers with a combination of diplomacy and deception. In <I>An Ordinary Man</I>, he tells the story of his childhood, retraces his accidental path to heroism, revisits the 100 days in which he was the only thing standing between his “guests” and a hideous death, and recounts his subsequent life as a refugee and activist. 3176538 4 2008 An Ordinary Man total:2|5:1|4:1| 2 9 5 0 0 0 false false Wed Apr 29 09:38:14 -0700 2009 Wed Apr 29 09:38:14 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Thu Apr 02 19:46:40 -0700 2009 Thu Apr 02 19:46:40 -0700 2009 5 0 false false Mon Dec 08 07:35:37 -0800 2008 Mon Dec 08 07:35:39 -0800 2008 0 0 false false Tue Oct 14 16:22:06 -0700 2008 Tue Oct 14 16:22:06 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Mon Mar 31 12:55:40 -0700 2008 Sat Sep 20 07:59:49 -0700 2008 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=3145066
