I highly recommend American Ground: Unbuilding the World Trade Center by William Langewiesche. It’s a great overview of the technical, tribal, psychological and political struggles over the recovery and demolition work at ground zero. Langewiesche spent months on the site himself, and the book is an insider’s view of the process. You know my reading habits: I read it in a sitting (which is why I’m posting this at 5:54 a.m.).
You might notice that this is a locked post: it’s not for my list, just you (Bill) and you (Ken). I don’t know why, exactly, but it feels right.
