Abstract

To the Editor: While I very much enjoyed Kevin Boyle's review of Tony Horwitz's ''Midnight Rising: John Brown and the Raid That Sparked the Civil War'' (Oct. 30), I found the following comment curious: ''It's impossible to read this fine book without thinking about the modern-day Browns, soldiers of a vengeful God, seeking righteousness in a fierce burst of violence, justice in the shedding of blood. Maybe Horwitz decided that he didn't need to make the comparison explicit.'' [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

To the Editor: Two of the misleading impressions left by Jonathan Mahler's review of my book ''The Rights of the People'' (June 12) deserve clarification. My research was framed less by my first thought on the morning of Sept. 11, 2001 -- ''There go our civil liberties'' -- than by my more nuanced second thought, as explained in sentences that followed immediately: ''It was a rash prediction, I knew, and I quickly re-formed it into a question about how firmly we would hold our liberties in such a time of testing, whether the Bill of Rights would sustain us. I figured there would be deterioration, but how much?'' [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

THE GROUND TRUTH: The Untold Story of America Under Attack on 9/11, by John Farmer (Riverhead, $16.) ''Whether through unprecedented administrative incompetence or orchestrated mendacity, the American people were misled about the nation's response to the 9/11 attacks,'' writes Farmer, who was senior counsel to the 9/11 commission. His study of newly available transcripts from federal agencies refutes later claims by Dick Cheney and Paul Wolfowitz that the military was ready to shoot down United Airlines Flight 93 before it could hit Washington; in fact, the plane had already crashed by the time the Northeast Air Defense Sector learned of its hijacking. ''No one told us anything,'' one military pilot recalled. CHRONIC CITY, by Jonathan Lethem (Vintage Contemporaries, $15.95.) Set in an alternate-reality Manhattan where a tiger is rumored to be roaming the streets and a gray fog has descended on the financial district, this novel about the friendship between a former child actor and a fading cultural critic is ''knowing and exuberant, with beautiful drunken sentences that somehow manage to walk a straight line,'' our reviewer, Gregory Cowles, said. It was one of the Book Review's 10 Best Books of 2009. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
