Title: A Long Dry Read
Review: As born and bred New Yorker I have always been fascinated with the WTC project as a whole. I can remember going to see them erected from a spot in Queens with my grandfather. So after 9/11 my interest in them was even greater. I approached this book as a possible insight giver on the construction and workings of these true landmarks. I was very wrong. Content was more towards the history of downtown NYC and the political as well as the private backroom dealings in getting them built. Little mention was spent on the building and maintaining them. The writing style was more of a thesis type, that resembled anger toward federal, state and local government and there policies. If your are looking for a book that will give insight on the engineering marvel that they were, then this is not the book. Save your money, and look somewhere else
