Journey Through Time: The New 9/11 Tribute Book

As we gear up to commemorate the 25th anniversary of the September 11 attacks, a new book titled "America's Providence - 9/11 Tribute in Photographs - Faith, Freedom, and the Forces That Would Undo America" sheds light on the historical and emotional journey from the nation's founding to the tragic events of that day.

Dave Rossi, a seasoned photographer based in New Jersey, has documented the twin towers throughout their existence. On September 11, 2001, he stood at the Jersey City waterfront, witnessing the horror unfold as smoke filled the skies over the Hudson. Rossi has captured the essence of New York's skyline for over four decades, and this new book is a culmination of his dedication to memorializing the significance of the Twin Towers.

The book does more than recount the events of 9/11; it begins with George Washington's inauguration on April 30, 1789. On this significant date, no Bible was initially present for Washington to swear on. In a twist of fate, Jacob Morton promptly retrieved one from St. John’s Lodge No. 1. Washington took his oath and led Congress to St. Paul’s Chapel for prayer, a chapel that would later stand resilient amidst the ruins of the twin towers.

Rossi’s ambition with this book is profound—he wishes to connect these historical moments, illustrating how these two iconic landmarks share an intertwined legacy. "Every year, people from all over the world gather where the towers once stood. Many pass by the chapel, where this country was first prayed for, without knowing its significance. I wanted to juxtapose these two moments on the same page," Rossi expressed.

Within its pages, the book features over fifty stunning photographs taken by Rossi, showcasing the resilience of New York City and its people. Additionally, it delves into the lesser-known aspect of the September 11 boatlift, where ordinary citizens used their boats to rescue nearly half a million people from Manhattan in a single day. This remarkable story of unity and community serves as a powerful reminder of the human spirit in the face of adversity.

Pre-orders for the book are now open, with favorable pricing for those who act quickly. The softcover edition is available for $45 (regularly priced at $55), while the hardcover edition is offered at $69 (regularly $89). A special digital version of the book is priced at $12.99, and a limited signed edition of just 1,776 copies is available for $250.

Rossi continues to capture the evolving skyline of lower Manhattan, using his lens to tell stories of faith, freedom, and resilience. This book not only serves as a tribute to those we've lost but also honors the enduring legacy of the American spirit.

The journey from a prayer in 1789 to the site of the Twin Towers resonates through the pages of this book, inviting us to reflect on our nation's history and the power of remembrance. As we approach September 15, 2026, the book's official publication date, it promises to be a significant addition not only to the libraries of history enthusiasts but also to those seeking connection and understanding in a changing world.
