Sponsored by the UNH English Department’s Writers Series, the lecture
is free and open to the public.
Langewiesche has been writing for The Atlantic Monthly since 1991, reporting
on a variety of subjects including travel in the Sahara, the Sudanese Islamic
government and the U.S.-Mexican border. He has written several books, including
his most recent, “American Ground: Unbuilding the World Trade Center,” which
originated as a three-part series for the magazine based on the nine months
he spent chronicling the recovery efforts. Langewiesche was granted exclusive
and unrestricted access to Ground Zero and the people involved in the cleanup
of the World Trade Center site just days after Sept. 11, 2001.
Langewiesche will also talk about his newest book, “The Outlaw Sea: A
World of Freedom, Chaos and Crime,” which is scheduled for release in
May.
