It's by Garrett M. Graff who wrote "The Only Plane in the Sky: An Oral History of 9/11". Below is a link to excerpts from the book. This excerpt is based on contemporaneous transcripts of 911 calls and cockpit voice recorders from September 11, as well as both archival primary source interviews with key participants—conducted as early as 2002—and supplemental original interviews by the author, as recent as this spring, including the first-ever interview with the Navy officer who ultimately asked Cheney for authority to shoot down hijacked airliners.

The book all too well brings back the memories of that tragic day. Pictured is Dick Cheney, Vice-President at the time but who is in charge since President George W. Bush was in the air on a plane.:
