Years in the making, this spellbinding, heartbreaking, and ultimately uplifting narrative offers an unforgettable portrait of 9/11. It masterfully weaves together multiple strands of the events in New York, at the Pentagon, and in Shanksville, Pennsylvania, providing a mesmerizing, minute-by-minute account of that tragic day. In the aftermath of 9/11, Mitchell Zuckoff, then a reporter for the Boston Globe, documented the attacks, the victims, and their families. After years of meticulous reporting, he has filled the narrative with the voices of both the lost and the saved. The result is an utterly gripping account featuring intimate stories of those most affected by that fateful Tuesday: an out-of-work actor trapped in an elevator in the North Tower; the heroes aboard Flight 93 who chose to fight back; a veteran caught in the Pentagon's inferno; the fire chief responding in Shanksville; firefighters racing to save an injured woman; and the men, women, and children on flights across the country facing terrorists. This narrative opens new avenues of understanding for anyone who thinks they know the story of 9/11, bringing to life—and in some cases, back to life—the extraordinary ordinary people who experienced that day.
