Another good one from Ed Klein
Revisado: 11-10-17
As long as you know what you're getting into beforehand, you'll probably like this book. The usual vociferous left-wing media propagandists will continue to spend a lot of time trying to discredit Ed Klein but a quick search reveals that Klein has been a journalist for nearly six decades—seven of those years as foreign editor of Newsweek, ten years as the editor- in-chief of the NYT Magazine (during which time the magazine won the first Pulitzer Prize in its history), and 27 years as a contributing editor of Vanity Fair.
I finished the audiobook in only 2 days. I found the content very interesting and the narrator was absolutely perfect. Let the political Wars rage on!

Historia
It was never supposed to be this close. And of course she was supposed to win. How Hillary Clinton lost the 2016 election to Donald Trump is the tragic story of a sure thing gone off the rails. For every Comey revelation or hindsight acknowledgment about the electorate, no explanation of defeat can begin with anything other than the core problem of Hillary's campaign - the candidate herself.

Eyewitness to history
Revisado: 04-27-17
Five stars with a few caveats--the writers are liberal democrats. They claim Clinton won "hands down" all 3 debates with Trump which I found to be "debatable". Toward the end, they also tried to characterize Clinton as a "victim" of James Comey, Wikileaks, Russian interference, alleged misogyny etc. Because Clinton has lived her life as a Machiavellian Ms. PacMan, gobbling up money power and fame at every opportunity and because she never hesitated to turn into "roadkill" anyone who stepped in her way, I don't see her as a victim of anything. In fact, the argument could easily be made that she is a more of a serial criminal.
These authors never sink to the depths of liberal propaganda that you see in leftist portals like CNN, CBS News, NYT or WaPo so if you can look past a little bit of liberal slant, you might enjoy a passenger seat in the historic wild ride of the 2016 presidential campaign.

Historia
Just two months into his presidency, Ronald Reagan lay near death after a gunman's bullet came within inches of his heart. His recovery was nothing short of remarkable - or so it seemed. But Reagan was grievously injured, forcing him to encounter a challenge that few men ever face. Could he silently overcome his traumatic experience while at the same time carrying out the duties of the most powerful man in the world?

Great trip down memory lane
Revisado: 09-28-15
I was very young when Ronnie ascended to the White House but I remembered most of the players so I thoroughly enjoyed this book and the trip down memory lane.Given O'Reilly's conservative bent, I figured O'Reilly would deify conservative icon Reagan but far from it. He presented the good, the bad and the downright ugly because Ronnie had plenty of all three. In spite of any personal shortcomings he had, I consider him to be the best President since Lincoln. Bravo to O'Reilly for a great all-around depiction of one of my very favorite presidents of all-time.

The Clinton trail of crime and slime goes global
Revisado: 05-07-15
I read this page-turner in a very short time. It's well-researched and footnoted so Clinton coincidence-theorists are bound to spend a huge amount of time and effort denouncing it. Partisan politics aside, when will the American people decide enough is enough of the draft-dodging philanderer, his wife and their sham marriage? Bravo to Mr Schweizer on an outstanding piece of investigative journalism.

They call him the Oracle. He's got 46 years under his belt and more hash marks than a football field. More importantly, he has a crew of cops to look out for on the streets of Hollywood. From his understaffed office at Hollywood Station, he keeps a close eye on his squad who spend their day in patrol cars, and their nights in the underbelly of a city that never sleeps.

Historia
Award-winning author William Kent Krueger has gained an immense fan base for his Cork O’Connor series. In Ordinary Grace, Krueger looks back to 1961 to tell the story of Frank Drum, a boy on the cusp of manhood. A typical 13-year-old with a strong, loving family, Frank is devastated when a tragedy forces him to face the unthinkable - and to take on a maturity beyond his years.

This was a great coming-of-age tale with added doses of murder, mystery, love, loss, philosophy and Christianity. Worth a listen.

Historia
From 1999 to 2009, U.S. Navy SEAL Chris Kyle recorded the most career sniper kills in United States military history. The Pentagon has officially confirmed more than 150 of Kyles kills (the previous American record was 109), but it has declined to verify the astonishing total number for this book. Iraqi insurgents feared Kyle so much they named him al-Shaitan ("the devil") and placed a bounty on his head.

Eat your hearts out, liberal democrats.
Revisado: 02-27-15
I completely disagree with those reviewers who denigrate Chris Kyle for his simplistic writing style and self-aggrandizement. For those who don't like American Sniper, go find Yoko Ono and sing "give peace a chance". But if you like stories about regular everyday guys who love God, country and family, this is a book you'll enjoy.

Historia
Part epic of Texas, part classic coming-of-age story, part unflinching examination of the bloody price of power, The Son is a gripping and utterly transporting novel that maps the legacy of violence in the American west with rare emotional acuity, even as it presents an intimate portrait of one family across two centuries. Eli McCullough is just twelve-years-old when a marauding band of Comanche storm his Texas homestead and brutally murder his mother and sister, taking him as a captive.
