Put a multimeter on the starter terminals, see if you are getting 12 volts. if not you have your problem narrowed down to wiring between ignition switch and starter. Also what about grounding issues. battery, starter, valve cover to chassis, thermostat housing to chassis.

If it died while you were driving i would check your battery and your alternator..get them test by an autoparts store..From the sounds of it your battery is dead at the moment, when you got it to start did you have to jump it???
