The Rising

"The Rising" shares the inside story of the challenging and complex process of rebuilding the World Trade Center after 9/11, as told by Larry Silverstein, who had acquired the lease just prior to the attacks. The book details his relentless efforts to navigate political, bureaucratic, and financial hurdles over two decades to restore a symbol of resilience to lower Manhattan. With vivid accounts of overcoming near-impossible obstacles, it offers a compelling look at the determination and vision required to turn a historic tragedy into a revitalized landmark.
