Once More to the Sky

Once More to the Sky is a compelling account of the decade-long journey to rebuild the World Trade Center, culminating in the opening of One World Trade Center, also known as the Freedom Tower, in late 2014. Authored by Scott Raab, who covered the construction extensively, the book features a collection of his ten original articles along with a new epilogue and numerous never-before-seen color photographs. It highlights the challenges faced during the project, from political disputes to personal stories of loss and resilience, ultimately serving as a poignant tribute to American determination in the wake of tragedy. Designed to coincide with the twentieth anniversary of 9/11, it reflects on the significance of the Freedom Tower as a symbol of hope and unity.
