Eighteen years have passed since 9/11 and for those who survived the attacks, it’s not enough time. Garrett has skillfully collated over five hundred witness statements from those who lived through that day—victims, heroes, and all those left behind. Without adding drama or sensationalism, he has painstakingly crafted a story of tremendous suffering and unexpected bravery as the American nation pulled together under threat.
