As the Statue of Liberty is known around the world as the symbol of America
and freedom, the Twin Towers are recognized around the world as the symbol of America and power.
Angus Gillespie's "Twin Towers" sneaks the reader past security to see what it really took to create these modern day monuments to human greatness. The book also lets the reader peer through the eyes of the myriad of different
people who work in the building, maintain the building, and even those who try to destroy the building. Simply fascinating!

Twin Towers is a richly textured study of an important American icon that symbolizes the intertwining of capitalism and government entrepreneurship in the United States.
A nicely crafted study, certain to be of interest to students of American politics and culture, and to engineers and architects.
