The looming tower - Al-Qaeda and the road to 9/11

Acclaimed as the first book to tell the human story behind 9/11, this is the definitive account of the people involved in the run-up to that day: from the Egyptian Sayyid Qutb who lit the spark of radical Islam in 1948, to the men who built up a terror network, to hotheaded FBI agent John O'Neill, whose warnings of 'something big' coming were ignored until the Twin Towers fell.
