A family plants an American elm on the Oklahoma prairie just as the city is taking root, and the little tree grows as Oklahoma City grows until 9:02 a.m. on April 19, 1995, the day America fell silent at the hands of one of its own. As rubble from the Alfred P. Murrah Building is cleared, the charred tree, its branches tattered and filled with evidence, faces calls that it be cut down. The only obstacle, a few people who marvel that, like them, it is still there at all. The next spring when the first new leaf appears proving the tree is alive, word spreads like a prairie wildfire through the city and the world. And the tree, now a beacon of hope and strength, is given the name, The Survivor Tree.
