Book excerpt: In 500 Days, Kurt Eichenwald lays bare the harrowing decisions, deceptions and delusions of the 18 months that changed the world forever, as leaders raced to protect their citizens in the wake of 9/11. Eichenwald s immediate style and true-to-life dialogue puts readers at the heart of these historic events, from the Oval Office to 10 Downing Street, from Guantanamo Bay to the depths of CIA headquarters, from the al Qaeda training camps to the torture chambers of Egypt and Syria. Eichenwald exposes a world of secrets and lies that has remained hidden until now.
