Perspectives on Modern World History

  • 9/11

  • Author Louise Gerdes
  • Published by Greenhaven Press

Examines from multiple perspectives the historical events leading up to and following the 9/11 attacks. Explores related controversies, including intelligence failures, the impact of globalization, racial profiling, and conspiracy theories. Offers personal narratives from a reporter who witnessed the towers falling, two first responders and a search-and-rescue worker, as well as a document outlining the terrorists' preparation for the attack.

Review:

"Excellent color photography on the cover and inside the book is emotional, but not sensational. Many of the pictures are not stock images of 9/11. For a small library, this book would be fine as the only 9/11 text."
