Synopsis
In this political expose, reporters Dan Collins and Wayne Barrett, review the two-term mayoralty of New York City's Rudy Giuliani and find that the heroic image he is remembered for resulted from his exemplary leadership in the final four months of his term, something they acknowledge and give him credit for. However, another view comes out as Barrett and Collins examine the record, asking tough questions about whether Giuliani had staffed his key response agencies with political appointees who were woefully unprepared for a major event like 9/11. They review the city's preparedness for attack and find it lacking; and they single out in particular the failure of the firemen's radios--often cited as a contributing factor in the chaos and death that resulted from the terrorist attacks on New York.

Publisher's Note
A pair of investigative journalists challenges beliefs about Giuliani's leadership during the events of September 11, arguing that the attacks enabled the mayor to reinvent his public image and followed two terms during which Giuliani failed to promote security interests. 50,000 first printing.

Industry reviews
"Synthesizing mountains of previously published material with impressive new reporting, Barrett and Collins paint a surprising, counterintuitive portrait of a politician best known as micromanaging control freak. Instead, they show how disengaged, ill-informed and disinterested he was when it came to emergency management and disaster preparedness."
