The Commission: The Uncensored History of the 9/11 Investigation by Philip Shenon

Just got my first review in the U.K., where the book is now on sale. Peter Preston, the former editor of the Guardian, gave me a terrific review last Sunday in the Observer, the Guardian's weekend sister paper. He describes The Commission as a "rich slice of investigative journalism" and a "masters' thesis in human frailty." I like that so many reviewers see this as a book about the struggles of human beings, as opposed to bureaucracies; certainly that was my intention. Here's the link to the Observer: books.guardian.co.uk/reviews/politicsphilosophyandsociety/0,,2267511,00.html I've gotten lots of good comments on the excerpt in The Washingtonian; it really has a broad readership in D.C. and beyond.
