Recenzii
“9/11 was a tragedy on many levels, but there is something uniquely heartbreaking about the loss of the many first responders who became sick and perished as a result of the environmental catastrophe at Ground Zero. 9/12 expertly tells their harrowing tale.”—Erin Brockovich, consumer advocate and environmental activist
“Many citizens believe the tragedy of 9/11 ended with the attacks themselves. But the two coauthors tell the full story—of the courage and determination of first responders and their numerous allies over the next decade. This is required reading for all Americans interested in the aftermath and legacy of 9/11.”—Kenneth R. Feinberg, special master of the federal 9/11 Victim Compensation Fund of 2001
"Groner and Teicholz write with both clarity and compassion about both the human struggle and the legal struggle. The reward for the reader, no less than for the first responders, is the opportunity to see justice done at long last and against long odds."—Jonathan Kirsch, Jewish Journal
"With the battle over federal health care compensation for 9/11 first responders underway once again, this behind-the-scenes chronicle about earlier struggles provides important information along with profiles in courage and self-sacrifice as readers meet those who gave their all to serve community and country."—Karen Springen, Booklist
Descriere
9/12 is the epic saga of more than ten thousand first responders who became ill as a result of working on the Ground Zero cleanup and the historic and ground-breaking legal, political, medical and scientific battle on their behalf.
