A sweeping narrative history of the events leading to 9/11, a
groundbreaking look at the people and ideas, the terrorist plans
and the Western intelligence failures that culminated in the
assault on America. Lawrence Wright’s remarkable book is
based on five years of research and hundreds of interviews that he
conducted in Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Sudan,
England, France, Germany, Spain, and the United States.
With the Pulitzer Prize–winning The Looming Tower,
Lawrence Wright became generally acknowledged as one of our major
journalists writing on terrorism in the Middle East. Here, in ten
powerful pieces first published in The New Yorker, he
recalls the path that terror in the Middle East has taken, from the
rise of al-Qaeda in the 1990s to the recent beheadings of reporters
and aid workers by ISIS.
