Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A touching tribute
Review: "America's Heroes" gives a stunning look at the heroes of September 11, 2001. From the firefighters, to the people aboard united flight 93 that crashed in Shanksville, Pennsylvania, these people are all considered heroes. And you can't forget the rescue dogs who practically worked themselves to death, trying to find somebody alive amongst the rubble of the World Trade Center.

This book is lasting tribute, filled with pictures, not of the buildings burning or the towers collapsing, but of the New York City firefighters & police officers, soldiers and of people mourning the loss of a loved one. It also features an excerpt from President Bush's address to the country on 9/11, a timeline of the terrorist attacks and stories about the people there that day.

This is an extraordinary book that every American should own so we will always remember the courage and the bravery of those everyday citizens who lost their life or risked their life trying to save another soul and didn't think twice about it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A classy, well-done, tear-jerker
Review: By far, this is the best book about 9/11. The stories in this book about the heroic rescue efforts in New York and DC are amazing. This book will be considered a classic in the years to come.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Republican party propaganda?
Review: This book appears to be nothing more than a Republican/Administration attempt at politicizing the tragedy of 9/11. If you were to flip through the pictures, you would think the only politicians responding to the tragedy were President Bush and Rudolph Juliani.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Don't Buy It
Review: This book appears to have been written by the Administration itself... it's terrible.

The stories are sappy. The photos are of poor quality. There are brands smeared throughout.

Don't buy this. It's made for idiots to show their idiotic guests.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Wonderful record & pics of events for future generations
Review: This book is filled with inspirational and heart-breaking stories of many of the heroes from the 911 tragedy. True stories of courage, sacrifice and patriotism are accompanied by moving color photographs of the Twin Towers in Manhattan, rescue workers and search dogs, fire fighters, and memorial tributes to the many lives lost. A great historical record and timeline of the events and the aftermath. A must-have for every American's library - so that we and our children, and future generations will NEVER FORGET! The reviewers who saw this as sappy and politicized must be a cynical and jaded bunch. These things happened to REAL people. No political agenda here. The rescue workers and ordinary people were the heroes-that's who this book is about.
