Reviews"This touching and beautiful book shines a light on a community in crisis while also showcasing their resiliency. As a mom and a native of Texas, I was moved by the sensitive reporting of John Quiñones, María Elena Salinas, and their team." --Eva Longoria, award-winning actress and film director "Two of the best journalists in the country, and the ABC News Investigative Unit, tackle one of the most important events of our generation. It's superb reporting with respect, precision, and a heart. . . . They stayed in Uvalde and it shows. This is necessary reading if you want to know who we are as a nation." --Jorge Ramos, anchor, Univision News "What happened in Uvalde didn't just change that small town. It changed our country. I understand why María Elena and John needed to be there, to be present and to write this powerful book. There are deep and profound lessons about what happened in Uvalde. Now more than ever we need journalists to be telling this story, and to not turn away." --Maria Hinojosa, president, Futuro Unidad Hinojosa Investigates, "This touching and beautiful book shines a light on a community in crisis while also showcasing their resiliency.

One Year in Uvalde shows us what journalism can achieve when journalists look like the people they cover and commit to staying to tell the stories that need to be told. John Quiñones, María Elena Salinas, and the entire team artfully give voice to a community, honor the lives lost, and hold authorities accountable, resulting in a powerful, damning, heartbreaking, and inspiring documentation of history." --Cecilia Vega, Correspondent, 60 Minutes "What happened in Uvalde didn't just change that small town. It changed our country. I understand why María Elena and John needed to be there, to be present and to write this powerful book. There are deep and profound lessons about what happened in Uvalde.

SynopsisFrom award-winning journalists John Quiñones and María Elena Salinas comes One Year in Uvalde, a narrative that builds on year-long ABC News reporting from Uvalde, Texas, chronicling how the community is forging on through grief with hope and activism in the shadow of tragedy. Uvalde: 365 was a continuing ABC News series led by the network's Investigative Unit. As part of the initiative, ABC News opened a local satellite news bureau in Uvalde, Texas, in the aftermath of the tragic mass shooting at Robb Elementary School, that hosted a rotating crew of correspondents, producers, writers, and technical staff. Their gripping, vital reporting has been featured across all programs and platforms, from Good Morning America to World News Tonight with David Muir . Award-winning journalists John Quiñones and María Elena Salinas became immersed in the Uvalde community, as their field reporting brought them ever closer to the people of this Texas city. Quiñones, Salinas, and other ABC reporters and producers on the ground documented the lives of victims' families; covered local community events; followed city council, school board, and Texas Legislature meetings; and attended congressional hearings in Washington, D.C., where victims' families have been advocating for gun reform. One Year in Uvalde synthesizes this year-long story into a timely, humane, and important look at a community's activism and resiliency, as it follows several families and residents while events continue to unfold in the community. The intimate, sensitive reporting of Quiñones, Salinas, and the ABC News team examines a specific time and place in American life, thereby highlighting challenges that we face as a nation. The authors have made donations to the following charities that serve the Uvalde community: *The Uvalde CISD Moving Forward Foundation (https: //UvaldeCISDMovingForward.org/) *The Uvalde Forever Fund of the Community Foundation of the Texas Hill Country (www.CommunityFoundation.net) *Uvalde High School Athletic Department (https: //Athletics.UCISD.net), Uvalde: 365 was a continuing ABC News series led by the network's Investigative Unit.
