Historia
Shocking news reaches them—an old friend has been killed, and a dangerous package he was protecting has gone missing. The gang's search leads them into the antiques business, where the tricks of the trade are as old as the objects themselves. As they encounter drug dealers, art forgers, and online fraudsters—as well as heartache close to home—Elizabeth, Joyce, Ron, and Ibrahim have no idea whom to trust.

The characters and the dialogue are the most interesting, pleasurable and entertaining. It is funny throughout with brilliant human realities. It is more than worth the time.

It is the story that needs to be told today. The 60's got us closer to the Promise of America, and now we are going to see the haters of those efforts and successes tear it all apart in 2025.

Historia
"I am Eva Delectorskaya," Sally Gilmartin announces, and so on a warm summer afternoon in 1976 her daughter, Ruth, learns that everything she ever knew about her mother was a carefully constructed lie. Sally Gilmartin is a respectable English widow living in picturesque Cotswold village; Eva Delectorskaya was a rigorously trained World War II spy, a woman who carried fake passports and retreated to secret safe houses, a woman taught to lie and deceive, and above all, to never trust anyone. Three decades later the secrets of Sally's past still haunt her.

Historia
Born to survivalists in the mountains of Idaho, Tara Westover was seventeen the first time she set foot in a classroom. Her family was so isolated from mainstream society that there was no one to ensure the children received an education, and no one to intervene when one of Tara’s older brothers became violent. When another brother got himself into college, Tara decided to try a new kind of life. Her quest for knowledge transformed her, taking her over oceans and across continents, to Harvard and to Cambridge University.

Her story helped me understand my story. Her travels to find her voice, in a world, her entire world, wanted her to have no voice. I had the complete opposite experience as a young girl growing up with a domineering father. Food for serious thought. Excellent

Historia
Ascending to the leadership role of US Attorney for the Southern District, which includes Manhattan and several counties to the north, is a capstone to any legal career: it entails guiding a team of the best lawyers in America in selecting and winning cases that often have global import. Geoffrey Berman was honored to be tapped for the job by Donald Trump in 2018. The manner in which Trump had dispatched his predecessor Preet Bharara was troubling, but the institution was fabled for its independence. Surely he could manage.

I recommend that when the House takes the floor to debate rescinding impeachment they must read this book on the floor. One member after another should read a page and let the realities of what transpired stand and be stated for the record.

Historia
It was one of the most searing images of the twentieth century: two young boys, two princes, walking behind their mother’s coffin as the world watched in sorrow—and horror. As Princess Diana was laid to rest, billions wondered what Prince William and Prince Harry must be thinking and feeling—and how their lives would play out from that point on.

Poetic and Profound
Revisado: 01-11-23
If you thought you knew, you don't.. the love of Diana and Harry's Story exposes the control and power of Rupert Murdoch. The British people have been conned and the Royal Family or The Firm, as Diana referred them has been the power behind the curtain. Though it cost no more than a pint of beer per citizen to have the Royal Family the toll it has extracted on one Family is immeasurable and it has been built on this false narrative. It's a very dysfunctional form of authoritarianism that could be summed up by the Story of the Wizard of Oz. I never understood that story until now. I under stand it Harry and I'm so glad you were able to Click your Heels and return to your family, continue your work and show the British people the value of their investment. UK would be so much better off if it stopped acting like the Republican Party. Well Done! you have so much to teach the world and your Mother has left the world a true legacy.

Historia
Celebrated historian John Hirst offers a fascinating exploration of the qualities that made Europe a world-changing civilization. The Shortest History of Europe begins with a rapid overview of European civilization, describing its birth from an unlikely mixture of classical learning and Christianity and German warrior culture. Over the centuries, this unstable blend produced highly distinctive characters - pious knights and belligerent popes, and beyond - and its coming apart provided the dynamic of European history in modern times.

Historia
The transition from President Donald J. Trump to President Joseph R. Biden Jr. stands as one of the most dangerous periods in American history. But as number one internationally best-selling author Bob Woodward and acclaimed reporter Robert Costa reveal for the first time, it was far more than just a domestic political crisis. Woodward and Costa interviewed more than 200 people at the center of the turmoil, resulting in more than 6,000 pages of transcripts - and a spellbinding and definitive portrait of a nation on the brink.

Woodward is in the Dark
Revisado: 06-11-22
After reading this book I realized how Machiavellian Trump is, Woodward got played. His observation that Trump is too stupid to have pulled off 1/6, is based upon "His first hand Account" , as time has proved , these were manufactured just for him. Now he is trying to rehabilitate his reputation by doing another media lap on Watergate. Well written and at the time of reading I thought " fascinating". Now I just think this represents how dangerous Trump is. Woodward got played.
