We didn't want to look at this book, being too close to ground zero as it were, but on that fateful September day, we all looked up from our lives and paused. We lamented the end of an era and, for many, the end of our lives. David Finn felt compelled to photograph the wreckage of and reaction to the most vicious attack on the U.S. mainland since the British burned the White House in 1812. Not surprisingly, the response was similar-fear, loathing, hope, anguish, disdain for fellow man and government, and unmitigated strength. E.L. Doctorow supports this story in pictures with sparse, lyrical text. This book is a lasting testament to the unbending soul of New York City and the boundless freedom of a country that was born in just such a moment and will survive into the foreseeable future.
