"Of the raft of books that are marking the 20th anniversary of 9/11
and its aftermath, few are likely to be as meticulously documented,
as fluidly written or as replete with riveting detail as Peter
Bergen’s The Rise and Fall of Osama bin Laden... A page-turner." —
The New York Times Book Review
"The portrait [Bergen] draws is intimate and detailed."— The
Washington Post
"The Rise and Fall of Osama bin Laden does much more than reveal a
human side to a mass murderer, offering the general reader an
authoritative and convincing portrait of a man whose misdeeds
changed all our lives in many ways, none for the better." — The
Guardian
"Comprehensive, authoritative, and compelling." — H.R. McMaster,
author of Dereliction of Duty and Battlegrounds: The Fight to
