Distilling an enormous amount of information in plain language, with unerring pitch and a perfect feelthis multi-author document produces an absolutely compelling narrative intelligence, one with clarity, a sense of shared mission and an overriding desire to do something about the situation.
Publishers Weekly
A report that upends the usual expectationsabout language, rhetoric, and purposeof blue-ribbon prose. It works with bracing power. The 9/11 Commission Report begins like an idylland it continues for hundreds of pages to be compulsively readable, as reviewers say of books that surprise them by being more interesting than they had expected.
Philip Kennicott, Washington Post
A series of findings that were searing in tone, sweeping in judgment and backed by voluminous reporting. The findings [are] presented in a dramatic, often gripping style. The account described in authoritative detail how the plot, despite setbacks, gathered shape and direction and how it finally struck with four nearly simultaneous hijackings.
David Johnston and Douglas Jehl, New York Times
More effectively than any other literary work of its era, the 9/11 [ Commission ] Report wed the fortunes of a weakened American government to those of a wounded citizenry.
Craig Warren, Journal of American Studies
How odd that one of the most critically acclaimed and bestselling books of the centurys first decade was a government report [that] may well live on as a narrative account of the defining event of the early twenty-first century.
Jonathan Freedland, The Guardian (on the fifty books that defined the decade)
THE ATTACK FROM PLANNING TO AFTERMATH
Authorized Text
with an afterword by Philip Zelikow
W. W. Norton & Company
New York London
This 2011 edition has retained all of the text of the narrative portions of the 2004 report (chapters 111). Chapters 12 and 13, which contained the Commissions recommendations, are replaced by the new afterword. The afterword summarizes the 2004 recommendations and their fate, along with a discussion of the continuing conflict. The notes have been abridged to retain only the explanatory material, since the many source citations are still available in the 2004 report. The 2011 edition thus provides the historical narrative and an updated look at present conditions in a shorter, more readable format.

Across the Potomac River, the United States Congress was back in session. At the other end of Pennsylvania Avenue, people began to line up for a White House tour. In Sarasota, Florida, President George W. Bush went for an early morning run.
