Synopsis:
On September the 11th 2001, Detective David Fitzpatrick was on his way to work when he heard the news of the attack on the World Trade Centre. He immediately got into a Police helicopter and went up into New York airspace as all other commercial air traffic was grounded. The result is this unique collection of disturbing and devastating photos of the events that day.
Because of his credentials as a police officer he also has unrivalled access to the site of Ground Zero. The latter part of the book contains intimate and heartrending scenes of the wreckage.
In an unprecedented move the N.Y.P.D. has allowed Penguin to release the photos in book form.
About the Author: Detective David Fitzpatrick is a photographer for the New York City Police Department.

Hardcover. Condition: Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. On the morning of September 11th, a new kind of horror shook the world. Terrorists crashed two passenger airliners into the World Trade Center in the worst attack on U.S. soil in the nation's history. But at the same time a new generation of heroes rose up to fight it. This book chronicles not only the devastation of that day, but also the valor and heroism of those who saved thousands of lives. Not one of these photographs has been published before. On top of that, these images offer a vantage point no ordinary photographers could obtain: They were taken by members of the New York City Police Department, uniformed and civilian, who were on the scene moments after the first plane hit and who were behind the scenes during the entire rescue and recovery effort. Many officers took pictures during the course of their duties. Some were inside the lobbies of the World Trade Center before they collapsed. Some were in helicopters hovering near the burning towers. Some were trapped in the dust cloud after the buildings fell. They took pictures of the pandemonium around them, the fear, the effort, the exasperation. This collection portrays the courage of those who rushed into the danger so that others could escape it. One of the featured photographers, Detective Dave Fitzpatrick, was off duty when he heard a report of the attack over his radio. He immediately went to an NYPD airfield, joined a crew boarding a police helicopter, and flew to the World Trade Center. They arrived right after the second plane hit and were instructed to observe the scene and watch for any other incoming aircraft. Over the course of three flights that day, Fitzpatrick shot thousands of photographs that became the only aerial views of the devastation and early rescue efforts downtown. He also covered all Ground Zero operations for the next two months. His best photos, along with those of numerous other members of the NYPD, have been collected in this book. Together they make up the most in-depth visual document of the September 11th tragedy and its aftermath. Former library book. Mylar protector included.
