Yesterday was the 16th anniversary since the devastating attacks of September 11. Coverage of the tragedy during which nearly 3,000 perished was the main priority that day for most Western news agencies (the scenes were witnessed by an estimated two billion people – a third of the human race). Together with amateur records, this has produced such an incredible amount of footage, some of it is rarely seen even today.

David Friend has put together a powerful book to commemorate the horrific day that changed the world forever, and included many never-before-seen images of the ever-resiliant people of New York coming together to rebuild the city from the ground up.
