In the aftermath of the 2020 presidential election, Donald Trump and many around him, including certain other elected Republican officials, intentionally breached their oath to the Constitution: they ignored the rulings of dozens of courts, plotted to overturn a lawful election, and provoked a violent attack on our Capitol.

Most important book I've ever read.

Best political book I've listened to!
Revisado: 01-13-24
Like many others reading this book, I'm not a conservative and lean to the left of center when it comes to social issues etc. However, I'm in total agreement with Liz about the Constitution and the need to protect our democracy. This book is well written and shares the facts and findings about Jan. 6, 2021. I only hope that we recognize the gravity of our times and wake up in time.

In the winter of 1918, at the height of World War I, history's most lethal influenza virus erupted in an army camp in Kansas, moved east with American troops, then exploded, killing as many as 100 million people worldwide. It killed more people in 24 weeks than AIDS has killed in 24 years, more in a year than the Black Death killed in a century. But this was not the Middle Ages, and 1918 marked the first collision between modern science and epidemic disease.

Every political leader needs to read/listen to this. If they had and learned from it - maybe the current pandemic could have been handled much better.

Welcome to Derry, Maine. It’s a small city, a place as hauntingly familiar as your own hometown. Only in Derry the haunting is real. They were seven teenagers when they first stumbled upon the horror. Now they are grown-up men and women who have gone out into the big world to gain success and happiness. But the promise they made 28 years ago calls them reunite in the same place where, as teenagers, they battled an evil creature that preyed on the city’s children.

Democracies can die with a coup d'état - or they can die slowly. This happens most deceptively when in piecemeal fashion, with the election of an authoritarian leader, the abuse of governmental power and the complete repression of opposition. All three steps are being taken around the world - not least with the election of Donald Trump - and we must all understand how we can stop them.

When Dr. Louis Creed takes a new job and moves his family to the idyllic, rural town of Ludlow, Maine, this new beginning seems too good to be true. Yet despite Ludlow's tranquility, there's an undercurrent of danger that lingers...like the graveyard in the woods near the Creeds' home, where generations of children have buried their beloved pets.

Michael C Hall was the perfect guy to narrate this book. Even if you read the book before listening to it is a great experience.

Before men ruled the earth, there were wolves. Once abundant in North America, these majestic creatures were hunted to near extinction in the lower 48 states by the 1920s. But in recent decades, conservationists have brought wolves back to the Rockies, igniting a battle over the very soul of the West. With novelistic detail, Nate Blakeslee tells the gripping story of one of these wolves, O-Six, a charismatic alpha female named for the year of her birth.

Wish I had read this book before I went to Yellowstone last summer. Love the book, it gave a lot of good information on the park and the wolves and everything going on. It would have made the experience much more enjoyable.

Next time I'll wait for the reviews...
Revisado: 12-04-17
Any additional comments?
Started listening to this book on a trip with my husband and unfortunately didn't finish it. Now we are trying to get through it when we ride together in the car. I agree with the other reviews that this is not Brown's best work by far and at times it feels like we're reading boring text book. Can't wait to get to the end.

Loved it. Didn't know that much about Alex Baldwin and bought the book because of his portrayal of Trump on SNL. What a treat this book turned out to be.

When you turn on the tap or twist the cap, you might not give a second thought to where your drinking water comes from. But how it gets from the ground to your glass is far more complex than you might think. Is it safe to drink tap water? Should you feel guilty buying bottled water? Is your water vulnerable to terrorist attacks? With springs running dry and reservoirs emptying, where is your water going to come from in the future? In Drinking Water, Duke professor James Salzman shows how drinking water highlights the most pressing issues of our time.

Should be required reading for highschool kids and all politicians. Very enlightening on how water has affected the way societies progressed and the way that people can be manipulated - think bottled water...
