The photographs and the reporters' accounts of their September 11th experiences are a piercing and necessary reminder to all Americans of why the war on terrorism must be won.
As Close as You'll Ever Get

This compelling account of the events of Sept. 11 is unlike any other. More than 100 journalists who were there take you straight to the scene with photographs and descriptions of what they saw and what they did and how they felt. The excerpts are short, the photos dramatic. One journalist died and many others were too close for comfort. You can feel the tension. And the anguish. Kudos to Shepard and Trost.

I took this book to breakfast one morning and could not put it down.This book provided a unique perspective of the journalist on that day, on one hand a regular American and on the other a professional doing their job on what was the most news worthy day in history. We take for granted the news media and the service they provide- I thought the book honored this profession.

Fantastic book. Great insight about the journalistic coverage of this national tragedy. The book was well put together, well edited, and pictures were horribly specatucular (given the nature of the subject). Great job to the authors! Would highly recommend!
