About this title

Review

"Makes for crucial, if disturbing reading and provides lessons that should help us avoid future terrorist attacks and unnecessary wars." -- David M. Barrett

"A startling, authoritative book that should make you plenty angry. The outgrowth of an investigation your tax dollars paid for, it tells us that the government of Saudi Arabia had a central role in 9/11--and your government covered it up. Wrongly overshadowed by The 9/11 Commission Report, it's essential reading." -- Anthony Summers
