September 11, 2001 is a day that will long be remembered in the United States of America. Tributes to those who died in the terrorist attack that day have sprung up like May flowers across the U.S. Unfortunately, it is impossible for the typical busy person to go out and see them all.

New Jersey 9/11 Memorials - A Photographic Guide Including the National Memorials is essential for the reader interested in participating in the tributes of his or her fellow citizens to the victims of the tragic attacks of September 11, 2001.
As the National September 11 Memorial and Museum in New York City states on a wall near the victims' remains, "No Day Shall Erase You from the Memory of Time". This is the object of every 9/11 memorial, and the object of New Jersey 9/11 Memorials - A Photographic Guide.
A portion of the profits of this book go to unfinished or underfunded New Jersey 9/11 memorials.
From the Foreword by Thomas H. Kean, former Governor of New Jersey and 9/11 Commission Chairman "This book contains many of these memorials. As we look at these designs and read the inscriptions we are brought back to that tragic day. We remember once again the victims and those brave people who rushed into the buildings to save them. In these monuments we once again remember best and the worst of that day. The diversity is wonderful. Each community expresses its loss in a different way. Each recalls the story for its children and grandchildren. Each tells us in their own way that we must never ever forget those loved ones who we lost that clear September morning. As many of the monuments remind us, it's about 'remembrance and rebirth'."
