Exceptionally Done! December 31, 2001
1 out of 3 found this review helpful
Leave it Time/Life to create a yet another masterpiece!
This book draws you into that horrific day of September 11, and fills the soul with the same emotions that was felt then.
A tremendous book to keep in the family and to share with future generations.

As vital as this necessary work is for today, its value will increase as the future unfolds. The important element arising from 9-11 in the total perspective is saluting the unfolding legacy developing from those events as they are projected forward toward posterity, never forgetting the sacrifices of those who died and those who risked their lives to assist. It was a day and a period for coming together, for fellowship, for doing for others. This book serves as an important tool in preserving that legacy.Selfish concerns must be forgotten when an event of this magnitude occurs. This is the type of period when Americans must respond to the challenge, to unite. This book captures that unification process in action. These photos are reminiscent for their profound meaning of those taken following the deaths of Franklin Delano Roosevelt, John Fitzgerald Kennedy and Martin Luther King. A great nation reveals its best, and displays its unifying core, in the wake of tragedy.
 Remarkable content, Lousy Layout December 29, 2001

While the book's content is extraordinary, its layout is awkward. The 9 1/4 X 11 size is sadly frustrating as some of the earliest and most remarkable photographs are positioned and lost in the center seam of the book!
I suspect the speed of the book's release had something to do with its awkward layout.
Perhaps in time "Life" magazine will release these photographs in a larger format as a timeless record of extraordinary courage and tenacity on every front.

This book depicts the events of September 11 with photos that are poignant and captivating. The words of the survivors and their families give you a heart-wrenching feeling of what happened that day. We must never forget the sacrifices and heroic deeds of so many people, told and untold. I highly recommend it for a family keepsake to pass onto other generations so that we may never forget the horrendous events of that day.
