Ambassador Who Helped Rebuild Ground Zero To Hold Book Signing

HUNTINGTON, NY — Republican fundraiser and strategist Ambassador Charles A. Gargano will be promoting his new book, "From the Ground Up," at a book-signing to be held next month.

On Thursday, Oct. 10 at 7 p.m., Gargano will be at Book Revue in Huntington where he'll be discussing his book, which details his experiences of helping to rebuild Ground Zero and re-engineering America following the 9-11 terrorist attacks, as well as signing copies of it.

"Confronted with helping to rebuild the ruins of lower Manhattan in the aftermath of September 11, Ambassador Charles A. Gargano spent twelve years cleaning up and revitalizing Ground Zero and developing One World Trade Center," the book description reads. "The experience was life affirming and provided a signature testament of hope. As a legendary real estate icon, engineer, and Republican strategist who served in the US government for three decades, He knows what does and doesn’t work and how to apply that experience to the foundation of America."

According to the Book Revue, an official RSVP isn't necessary, though it'll help the store estimate how many people to expect. You can do so through the store's site.

All books signed at Book Revue events must be purchased at Book Revue, the store said. It asks those who purchased the book prior to the event to save the Book Revue receipt. For those who bought the book from somewhere else, your book can still get signed, but the store asks that you make a purchase at Book Revue of equal or greater value to that of Gargano's book.

Gargano served U.S. government for three decades, appointed by presidents Ronald Reagan and George H.W. Bush, as well as by New York State Governor George Pataki. He played vital roles in rebuilding the World Trade Center, as well as the renovation and re-engineering of projects like the Atlantic Yards, the Jacob Javits Center, the second Harlem Renaissance, Dia Center for the Arts, Downtown Brooklyn, Buffalo Harbor, Niagara Falls and the 42nd Street Revival.
