An operations commander at the World Trade Center site documents the nine-month period after the September 11 attacks during which he and the surviving members of his department secretly recovered tons of gold and silver to safeguard the Commodities Exchange, found a hijacked plane's black box, raised a controversial iron beam that would become the site's icon, and participated in numerous other harrowing efforts. Reprint. 20,000 first printing.
