Historia
Iron Cowboy is an endurance memoir in the tradition of Dean Karnazes’s Ultramarathon Man - a lifetime’s worth of intensely lived experience packed into 20 riveting chapters. Listeners will discover the secret to redefining their own goals and achieving great success. When James Lawrence (aka the Iron Cowboy) announced his plan to complete 50 full-distance triathlons in 50 consecutive days in all 50 states, the only person who believed that he could pull it off was James himself (and his wife, Sunny).

Not the first to be motivated to run, but one more of thousands I’m sure. Not for the love of running, but for the love of challenging myself, ONE-MORE-TIME!

Historia
Hillbilly Elegy is a passionate and personal analysis of a culture in crisis - that of white working-class Americans. The decline of this group, a demographic of our country that has been slowly disintegrating over 40 years, has been reported on with growing frequency and alarm but has never before been written about as searingly from the inside. J. D. Vance tells the true story of what a social, regional, and class decline feels like when you were born with it hung around your neck.

I couldn't help but retell many of his stories. I was entertained, educated, and reminded of some of my own friends and family.
His final chapter rap-up was great.

When Charlie Trumper inherits the barrow his grandfather used to peddle fruit and vegetables in turn-of-the-century Whitechapel, England, he inherits his enterprising spirit as well. Charlie's deeply held ambition to raise himself out of the poverty of London's East End is destined to be realized, but there are many obstacles to overcome, including a tour of duty at the front in World War I, where he encounters the man who will become his lifelong enemy.

Recommended by my father
Revisado: 11-13-16
I had just finished listening to the magic strings of Frankie Presto, By Frank Albom, and I was telling my father about that book when he recommended that I listen to as the crow flies. After just two chapters, Of what I felt was a very slow and uneventful start, I was a little concerned that I wouldn't be able to finish The remaining 19 hours of listening. How wrong I was! Once we got into World War I I was hooked, and look forward to every minute that I could sneak away and listen to this book. The authors style and way he told the story from so many points of you was brilliant. And while. His characters overlapped their stories, it never felt repetitive. I highly recommend this book

I listened to the entire book while gardening in the early North Carolina spring.
Revisado: 04-02-16
I listened to the entire book while gardening in the early North Carolina spring. Being a transplant to Western NC and listening to this story on one of the most beautiful days, lifted my heart and reinforced my decision to move here. This series is everything good about North Carolina, and this story in particular was a great reminder of how wonderful my own marriage and family are to me. You can't help but reflect, with gladness, on the blessings in your own life, after listening to this book. I stopped during several parts of this book to take in the beauty around me as the book was describing the beauty and serenity of its own story.
I've become a fan of Jan Karon and the Mitford series books.
On the narrator, although the change from male to female voice was difficult at first, I slowing forgot the change, and I was very happy to hear such beautiful singing!

Historia
Known for his network of conservative websites that draws millions of readers everyday, Andrew Breitbart has one main goal: to make sure the "liberally biased" major news outlets in this country cover all aspects of a story fairly. Breitbart is convinced that too many national stories are slanted by the news media in an unfair way. In Righteous Indignation, Breitbart talks about the key issues that Americans face, how he has aligned himself with the Tea Party, and how one needs to deal with the liberal news world head on.

So you're young and you want to CHANGE THE WORLD
Revisado: 04-11-12
What made the experience of listening to Righteous Indignation the most enjoyable?
What young person doesn't look at the Older Generation and think "Wow, you really screwed things up! When I get out of college, I'm going to make things right. I'm going to make a big difference in this world!" Well, good for you. Learn from your father's mistakes, NO your grandfathers mistakes. You see it was your Grandfather's generation that walked off the Righteous path, who deffered the raising, training, and education of their children to the Educated Elitists (socialists), and then handed over all the power of the greatest country and society this world has ever known to a bunch of spoiled, egotistical, self righteous brain washed kids (your parents). Those ignorant youth swallowed every drop of syrup and honey that fell from there professors poisionous lips. It's not your parents fault, they didn't have an Andrew Breitbart to provide them a clear understanding of just how smoothly they were being manipulated. But it is my fault and yours if we don't take back the rightful power of the people. After you listen to Righteous Indignation you will understand how the MSM is using you and me, just like the Matrix used and manipulated the masses in the movie. Listening to this book won't make the world a prettier place. It will open your eyes to the true ugliness that surrounds you and give you back the power to make a difference in this world. And maybe, just maybe, YOU CAN make it beautiful again. Knowledge is power, and right now the MSM has it. If you want some of that power, Listen to this book!
If you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?
It was already made, it's called the Matrix.
Any additional comments?
I have seen the Beast, and its name is MSM!

I got my son back, and he got a true father
Revisado: 01-04-12
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
I listened to this book over 4 years ago because my son and I were ALWAYS arguing, and quite frankly I was ready to kick him out before things got too physical. I've always thought of myself as being self disciplined and looked down on others who were not. So, I was floored to learn, from the author, that my son was doing what kids do at that age, that it was me that needed to grow up, and that meant being mature and
What other book might you compare ScreamFree Parenting to and why?
I've not come across a book that hit the bulls-eye like this one did for me. And other than the bible, no other book has had a more positive impact on changing my life than scream free Parenting has.
What did you learn from ScreamFree Parenting that you would use in your daily life?
I am responsible to my kids. I am not responsible for my kids.
Any additional comments?
Your kids deserve for you to read this book.
