Summary |
Writing with empathy, passion, and critical insight, Edward T. Linenthal explores the ways Oklahomans, and American culture at large, have tried to make sense of this horrific event. Drawing from over 150 personal interviews with survivors, family members of those murdered, rescuers, and many others, Linenthal portrays the aftermath of the bombing and the formation of a "bereaved community" that extended from Oklahoma City across the country and even the world |
