More copies of this ISBN:The Terror Timeline: Year by Year, Day by Day, Minute by Minute: A Comprehensive Chronicle of the Road to 9/11 -- and America's Responseby Paul Thompson
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:Paul Thompson's The Terror Timeline offers a complete and thorough history of the many roads that converged on 9/11, including the development of Islamic fundamentalism, the activities of bin Laden and al-Qaeda, and the failures of U.S. investigations and counterterrorism efforts. It traces the actions (and inactions) of every important figure in the war on terror, both before and after 9/11, bringing them together in a volume that offers a comprehensive and provocative look at this complex subject. Packed with little-known facts and disturbing questions, The Terror Timeline is the first complete reference guide to the events of 9/11 and the war on terror — the definitive primer on the most momentous issue of our times. About the AuthorPaul Thompson is a freelance researcher and is the creator of the Center for Cooperative Research's Complete 9/11 Timeline (www.cooperativeresearch.org), a compilation of over 5,000 articles and reports on 9/11. A former California environmental activist, he worked to preserve the rainforest in Borneo. Thompson divides his time between California and New Zealand.
