11, 2001, terrorist attacks both domestically and internationally,

economic, diplomatic, and military change as a direct result of the
events of September 11, 2001. Through narrative chapters, a
chronology of events, biographical sketches of principal players,
and annotated primary documents, author Tom Lansford documents the
domestic impact of the terrorist attacks that stunned the world as
well as the subsequent "war on terror" and the invasions and
occupations of Afghanistan and Iraq. 9/11 and the Wars in
