Book excerpt: Nothing sums up -- so powerfully, so dramatically, so beautifully -- the impact of the tragedy of Sept. 11, 2001, better than the Ground Zero photo project undertaken by photographer Joe McNally. His portraits, created in a studio only blocks from Ground Zero, were taken in the days following the attacks, with a one-of-a-kind camera. These pictures have an immediacy that is stunning -- they connect, emotionally, with the viewer. The men, women & children who arrived at McNally's studio represent a cross section of those who lived through the hellish attacks: firefighters, rescue workers, doctors, Trade Center employees, students, police officers, clergy, & relatives of victims. Here, 150 of McNally's portraits are gathered for the first time.
