The best book I have read in years is "The Looming Tower" by Lawrence Wright. The author won a Pulitzer Prize for this work.
Let me tell you why you should read it.
First, it is the best set up for 9/11 that I have read. It makes you understand where these guys are coming from.
Second, this books knows about bin Laden. It follows his life and makes the readers understand that he is certainly not quite the person that the media portrays.
The main reason you should read this book is that it is so well written. Most of the time I read books like this and the names lose me. I can't possibly keep track of everyone. That is not the case here. I may not be ably to pronounce the names verbally but I found Wright to be such a good story teller that the names are just one part of the fabric.
This book is excellent. |
