FLIGHT 93 NATIONAL MEMORIAL is the fifteenth title from AMAG Publisher’s Long Books series. The collection, which utilizes a contemporary conceptual graphic language, showcases works that establish new paradigms in architecture. Each title features one single work, from one single author. More than 60 pages of photographs, diagrams, drawings, and details create a visual narrative of this extraordinary project.
The story of the Flight 93 National Memorial began with United Airlines Flight 93, one of four planes hijacked during the September 11, 2001 attacks in the United States. Forty passengers and crew members courageously gave their lives to thwart a planned attack on the Nation’s Capital as the plane crashed in Western Pennsylvania with no survivors.
