Synopsis
Nearly ten years ago, in the aftermath of the horrific attacks on the World Trade Center, on the Pentagon and on the heart and soul of America, LIFE Books sought to commemorate-to honor-the victims of 9/11, and to tell the stories of many who survived or had tried to help. Ten years later, it is worthwhile to revisit that moment. LIFE's hardcover book One Nation was a definitive telling of the time, according to The Wall Street Journal, and now we republish its original, trade paperback version In the Land of the Free. In these volumes ten years ago, LIFE's Joe McNally embarked upon his remarkable Faces of Ground Zero portrait project, which captured the passion of those who had been there, or had rushed there as quickly as they could. Ten years later, McNally revisits ten of these subjects for LIFE-with his lens, and in new interviews. At the time, this was the definitive book. Ten years later, it remains so.

About the Author
The editors at LIFE vigorously carry on the traditions of excellence in photography, in journalism, and in telling the story of our country and our world which began with LIFE magazine in 1936 by founding editor and publisher, Henry R. Luce. They have published books on a broad range of subjects, including New York Times bestsellers One Nation, LIFE Picture Puzzle and The American Journey of Barack Obama.
Joe McNally is an internationally acclaimed photographer, whose career has spanned 30 years and included assignments in over 50 countries. In the mid-1990s Joe served as Life magazine's staff photographer, the first one in 23 years. He is a recipient of the Alfred Eisenstaedt Award and has been honored by Pictures of the Year International, World Press Photo, The Art Directors Club, American Photo, Communication Arts, and Graphis. He conducts numerous workshops around the world as part of his teaching activities. One of Joe's most notable projects, Faces of Ground Zero - Giant Polaroid Collection (which he later published with the editors of LIFE), has become known as one of the most significant artistic responses to the tragedy at the World Trade Center.
