For
young people who were not born yet or may have been newly born, and for
older readers who want to remember or enrich their memory, Above Hallowed Ground
is a serviceable pictorial which begins with crisp NYPD photographs of
September 11th, 2001 and ends with the site of Ground Zero, cleared in
April, 2002. This coffee-table sized volume is punctuated by images of
details and memorials and well-captioned throughout. An introduction
paints the event in the most dramatic of terms and leaves the full-color
images to tell the rest of the story. A useful text to visit during a
national day of remembrance. For additional topical texts reviewed in
this blog, readers may want to view The 9/11 Report and One Nation --Jessica Fenster-Sparber
