An Important Founding Father

Revisado: 11-11-18

This book explains how critical James Madison was to the evolution of our independent country and our Constitutional thought. At every stage of the country's development, Madison's presence made a difference. The book is very informative, but not quite as compelling as I had hoped (hence only 4 stars instead of 5). #Leadership #Informative #AmericanHistory #Tagsgiving #Sweepstakes

A Lesson in How to Lead this Country

Revisado: 11-11-18

Doris Kearns Goodwin describes how four outstanding Presidents overcame adversity to have what it takes to ultimately lead our country through difficult times. She has such insight. Would that we had such a President now. #Leadership #Revealing #AmericanHistory #tagsgiving #sweepstakes

A bit of an anti-climax, but outstanding!

Revisado: 09-15-18

There were a number of blockbuster revelations, and the book overall is totally outstanding. There weren't quite as many shocking revelations as I expected from the pre-release hype -- which actually is good news for the benefit of the country. But the revelations that are in the book felt very well researched and very real. I loved this book, and got through it in only a few days. #RippedFromTheHeadlines #Shocking #Trump #tagsgiving #sweepstakes

Tedious at first, but it gets more interesting.

Revisado: 07-04-18

I bought this book on the recommendation of a friend. At first, I had trouble sticking to it, both because the presentation was tedious but because it was the story of such a depressing chapter in our history. Later, it gets into a discussion of the judicial philosophical evolution of Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr., and that was very interesting and compelling, although disappointing to realize how unenlightened Justice Holmes had been.

Not really a dog story

Revisado: 07-04-18

If you're thinking of reading this because you like dog stories, you might want to pass on this one. It's an acceptable murder mystery, with some interesting twists, but the dog is just another character.

The Clintons Explained

Revisado: 07-04-18

This book is for everyone who never understood what made either of the Clintons tick or what kept them together. Dr. Gartner has studied them, and their lives, with a psychiatrist's expertise and has figured them out. I couldn't put it down.

Another exciting time travel episode

Revisado: 11-24-17

I'm so delighted that Jodi Taylor's wonderful series has additional episodes. This one is outstanding, as the rest of the series has been.
