Description
On September 11, 2001, with the terrorist attack on the twin towers of the World Trade Center in New York City, the United States entered one of the greatest trials in its history. There were thousands of deaths in the wake of that tragedy - and thousands of heroes. Led by Police Commissioner Bernard B. Kerik, the New York Police Department and the New York Fire Department banded together in courage and hope during the rescue and recovery effort. IN THE LINE OF DUTY salutes the brave men and women of the NYPD and the NYFD, who proved to the nation and the world the strength and heroism of the American people. This powerfully moving work contains over 100 pages of the most dramatic photographs taken in the days following the attack - including many never-before-seen images exclusive to IN THE LINE OF DUTY. With a foreword in tribute to the search and rescue teams - and their fallen comrades - by Commissioner Kerik, and filled with the inspirational words of national and spiritual leaders, IN THE LINE OF DUTY bears witness to the indomitable spirit of the American people.
