About this ebook
This revealing biography examines the life of al-Qaeda’s founder from birth into a Saudi dynasty to his years in hiding after 9/11.
As the mastermind behind the September 11th terrorist attacks, Osama bin Laden is one of the most-recognized faces of terror. Even years after his death in 2011, he remains a vivid symbol of outrage and tragedy in the American imagination. Yet bin Laden always presented himself to the world as a paragon of ascetic virtue. But journalist Adam Robinson tells a far different story.
This authoritative biography lifts bin Laden’s mask of moral purity as it recounts his transformation from dissolute rich kid into ruthless terrorist. Drawing on information from members of bin Laden’s own family and extensive independent research in Saudi Arabia, Lebanon, Oman, Libya, and Pakistan, Robinson opens a window into the man who changed the face of global politics.
