A Page on the World: The Looming Tower

1 minute read time

Lawrence Wright's excellent book, The Looming Tower, won a Pulitzer prize this week for general non-fiction. I recommend the book to anyone wanting a basic primer on the roots of Islamic jihad. I quoted a portion of the book in this article.

Hugh Hewitt
has links to other works-by Wright and Mark Steyn-that he says should form the foundation for any discussion of the threat from Islamo- facism.

Recommended reading all.
