Trump, Jr. writes about the importance of fighting back and standing up for what you believe in. From his childhood summers in Communist Czechoslovakia that began his political thought process, to working on construction sites with his father, to the major achievements of President Trump's administration, Donald Trump, Jr., spares no details and delivers a book that focuses on success and perseverance, and proves offense is the best defense.

Must read!
Revisado: 11-15-19
Honest, humorous. insightful. I seldom write reviews but this is a must. If you want the truth and insight into the Trump presidency and the Trump family this is it. Definitely not a boring read. I would give it a 10 if I could.

From the author of The Power of One comes an inspiring human drama of three lives brought together and changed forever by the extraordinary events of recent history. Inspired by real events, Bryce Courtenay's new novel tells the story of three people from vastly differing backgrounds. All they have in common is a tough beginning in life.

Russia, 1941. Katya Ivanova is a young pilot in a far-flung military academy in the Ural Mountains. From childhood, she's dreamed of taking to the skies to escape her bleak mountain life. With the Nazis on the march across Europe, she is called on to use her wings to serve her country in its darkest hour. Not even the entreaties of her new husband—a sensitive artist who fears for her safety—can dissuade her from doing her part as a proud daughter of Russia.

Historical fiction at it best
Revisado: 01-07-18
Where does Daughters of the Night Sky rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
This book would be at the top 10% of the books I have listened to The top 5% of historical fiction.
What other book might you compare Daughters of the Night Sky to and why?
(The Children's House of Belsen) Both books are filled with human weakness, suffering and heroism joy. If you want the human side of war, I would recommend both of these books.
What about Kathleen Gati’s performance did you like?
Her soft and gentle voice was rich and calm making the story equally rich.
If you could rename Daughters of the Night Sky, what would you call it?
I think the name is excellent as is. I sums up the subject matter extremely well.

On May 18, 1860, William H. Seward, Salmon P. Chase, Edward Bates, and Abraham Lincoln waited in their hometowns for the results from the Republican National Convention in Chicago. When Lincoln emerged as the victor, his rivals were dismayed and angry. Throughout the turbulent 1850s, each had energetically sought the presidency as the conflict over slavery was leading inexorably to secession and civil war.
