Review:
"The psychological portrait of the world's most wanted man is all the more devastating for being written by two people who apparently once revered him." -- Culture, The Sunday Times
"Osama Bin Laden groomed his sons to be suicide bombers, a horrifying new book reveals." -- The Sunday Express
"Growing Up bin Laden opens up a rare window into a hidden culture, giving the reader much to contemplate... A fascinating example of how, in a family sharing genes and environment, fathers and sons emerge with different life missions. Osama, a compassionate and fun-loving young boy, becomes today's most sought-after terrorist. Omar, raised in a world of violence, longs for peace. This is an unforgettable story." -- Betty Mahmoody, author of the international bestselling book Not Without My Daughter
"Growing Up bin Laden is a critical missing corner piece of the Osama bin Laden puzzle, filled with astonishing secrets that could only be told by the al-Qaeda leader's loved ones." -- Dalton Fury, New York Times bestselling author of Kill bin Laden
"Fascinating! Worth far more than dozens of intelligence reports, this enthralling portrait of Osama bin Laden, sharply drawn by his senior wife and favored son, captures as no other work has done - or could do - the degeneration of the world's most-notorious terrorist from a loving, if stern, teenage husband to a fanatic who covered his cherished faith in blood. Skillfully framed by Middle-East authority Jean Sasson, this book will grip you, make you shudder..." -- Ralph Peters, author of Beyond Terror and The War After Armageddon
