It is a story that has not yet been written about or told. It includes hundreds of oral histories and many photographs of this high drama, set against the terrifying backdrop of the day when the Earth stood still, every airport in the U.S. was closed down, and Manhattan was seized by gridlock. For perspective, the boatlift that saved Britain's expeditionary force from the beaches of Dunkirk removed approximately the same number of people: 300,000." -- Goodreads.com 650 0 September 11 Terrorist Attacks, 2001. 650 0 Disaster relief|zNew York (State)|zNew York. 650 0 Evacuation of civilians|zNew York (State)|zNew York. 650 0 Emergency management|zNew York (State)|zNew York. 650 0 Rescues|zNew York (State)|zNew York.
