 ...This recording of a controversial document is impressive in its conciseness and its attempt at neutrality in the face of the attacks of 9/11. An example of modern bipartisan cooperation, the summary, in its truncated form, offers a tantalizing hint of the full story of 9/11 as revealed by the U.S. government. Reader Grover Gardner provides an appropriately mature, professional gravitas to the proceedings, somber as they are. An unlikely bestseller in book form, this audiobook is a landmark document of a great intelligence failure in every sense of the word and the efforts of a nation to gather its wits in the face of radical change.
