Inside the Towers

Inside The Towers

by digby

After watching all the coverage of 9/11 and talking and listening to New Yorkers who were there, trying to get a handle on the experience, it took this book,102 Minutes: The Untold Story of the Fight to Survive Inside the Twin Towers released in 2006 to fully bring home just how unimaginably horrible it was for the people who went through it.

If you haven’t read it, prepare yourself before you do. It’s the most graphic account of being inside a disaster of this magnitude I’ve ever read. It might even give you nightmares. It did me.

The people of New York deserve a lot of credit for keeping their wits about them on that day. It’s too bad the government didn’t stay as cool and instead decided to use it as an excuse to bring their neocon wet dream to life.
