I would recommend this book to anyone. The book perfectly depicts the events of The Battle of Benghazi. The book is action packed from the very start of the story to the very last page. The story is very intense and has very interesting characters each with different backgrounds. The book is also interesting because it is about a true event giving factual information while being an awesome book. If you want to read a book about true courage and american patriotism, 13 Hours is the perfect book for you.
