In the wake of the destruction of the World Trade Center towers by terrorists on September 11, 2001, it is easy to forget that these buildings had been the target of terrorist acts once before. This book covers both attacks in detail, with a special focus on the post-September 11 rescue and recovery efforts, and America's response to the worst terrorist attack ever experienced on American soil.

Describes the events of September 11, 2001, focusing on American Airlines Flight 77, which was hijacked by terrorists and flown into the Pentagon.
