Interesting...

Revisado: 07-04-23

This was an interesting story but, having read other superb works by this author, a small bit disapointing...

A true treasure

Revisado: 06-06-23

So much different than the movie but so much richer in details -- something that no film could match and so much that couldn't possibly fit within the time constraints of such a medium. I am SO glad to have found the original source for this story and so much richer for having read it all. A true treasure!!!

An entirely consumable account of deep subjects

Revisado: 12-22-22

This book covers a wide range of topics in astrophysics that is completely understandable to the average person. Through it anyone can understand why we, as humans, study this subject. It is a fascinating discussion of our universe and our place in it. This book is very well worth the time it takes to listen. Being read by the author, her excitement and interest for her subject shows thru and makes it obvious why she chose this for her life's work. Splendid! Well done, indeed!!!

John Boehner talks about his time in Congress. We see that national politics is people. Great!

A good summary of Japan leading up to WW2

Revisado: 11-18-21

An easy read. Really explains the conflicts between Japan and China in the early 1900's and how these led to Perl Harbor. Well worth the time. Good depth as well.

A Rough Read

Revisado: 08-06-21

Removing the horror that was DJTs presidency is PTSD. The additional information supplied shows just how far he slipped into madness as he failed again and again. It's worth a read but be prepared -- it is hard to endure.

A Story of Courage, Persistence, and Survival...

Revisado: 02-02-20

The book is long and, at times, seems to be wandering but each twist and turn (much like the bayou in which it is set) brings the reader closer to the core and the truth. In the end this is an uplifting story of someone who chould have easily perished but who refused to do so and, ultimately, triumphed... Well worth the read.

Perfect Book For .Me

Revisado: 02-12-18

This book was like a baseball game - you can miss a good amount and not loose any real information. The message is so consistent simply because the subject is so consistent . I am afraid that there has not been any real "test" of this administration yet -- no 9-11, no housing meltdown, etc. It is in these situations - when a president must really rise and lead - that the true measure of the man emerges. I pray for Mr. Trump that he will survive this inevitable day when it finally arrives.
