A powerful, beautifully illustrated remembrance of the terrible morning of September 11, 2001 and the amazing courage, strength and patriotism that followed from the award-winning editors and photographers of Life Magazine. This is about firemen going in amidst the rubble, but it is also about a Frenchman in Paris holding up a sign that says "We are all Americans". This is about leaders taking charge, but it is also about schoolchildren in Iowa hanging an American flag on a tree in their backyard. Beginning with the history of lower Manhattan, the book explains what happened on September 11, p

White, writing in LIFE, likened the situation to Camelot. And if Jack Kennedy was our King Arthur, then Jackie was our queen. On these pages, that era comes alive again, as do the earlier and later chapters of Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy Onassis’s remarkable, captivating story. LIFE long enjoyed a special relationship with this woman--she first appeared on the magazine’s cover in 1953 as th
