March – April Meeting Dates: Wednesday, April 14, 2010 – Chapters 10 - 20Place: Santa Clara Library Time: 1:00pm – 2:30pm From the back of the book: A gripping narrative that spans five decades, The Looming Tower explains in unprecedented detail the growth of Islamic fundamentalism, the raise of al-Qaeda, and the intelligence failures that culminated in the attacks on the world Trade Center. Lawrence Wright re-creates first-hand the transformation of Osama bin Laden and Ayman al-Zawahiri from incompetent and the idealistic soldiers in Afghanistan to leaders of the most successful terrorist group in history. He follows FBI counterterrorism chief John O’Neil as he uncovers the emerging danger from al-Qaeda in the 1990s and struggles to track this new threat. Packed with new information and a deep historical perspective. The Looming Tower is the definitive history of the long road to September 11.
