Anthony DePalma to Discuss his Book: “City of Dust: Illness, Arrogance, and 9/11”

The Livingston Public Library will host author and journalist Anthony DePalma on Thursday, February 10 at 7:30 pm.

He offers a detailed look into the health problems suffered by  rescue workers, cleanup crew, and survivors and meticulously explains the legal battles to provide health care and compensation to the thousands of contractors, firemen, police, and others who spent months cleaning up Ground Zero.
