Old Mariner

A Good Read

Revisado: 04-03-22

I liked the book, but didn't love it as with most Grisham's books. My opinion is that it did not grab the reader's attention as quickly as some. One must fish a little longer before gettìngjh the big strikes, but in the end ìt ìs a satisfyinglyì⅝, entertaining experience. Worthwhile reading.7

A Personal Fireside Chat

Revisado: 01-16-21

This is quite an enthralling memoir of Barak Obama's Presidency, sometimes light hearted and at others, serious, deeply thought provoking and personal. With it being read by him, one gets the feeling of having your personal fireside chat with him telling you his story and your hearing his honest feelings throughout. During these dark days at the end of the Trump Presidency immediately following Trump's failed coup d'etat, I came away with a feeling of reassurance that our Country has and will in the future weather the most stormy pf seas. Excellent.

Not Much

Revisado: 12-24-20

Information is sketchy and is centered around what can scarcely be called the "business" end of teaching guitar: For example, how to charge, when to charge, how to interact with different types and ages of students, etc. What is not present are any suggestions as to which methods, which music book series to teach, advice on lesson planning, what to teach, etc. I teach people how to read musical notation...I have very little use for tablature. My philosophy is to teach music, not the "put this fingure here and this one here" approach. By the way, neither method is ever mentioned in the book. I give it two stars, because it does offer some good ideas, basically food for thought. It was definitely not what I was hoping for. You decide whether it is worth the small amount of money based on my opinion given here. I would definitely not waste a credit on it.

Not for Me

Revisado: 09-28-19

It's the "other side" of the story...the one about how terribly colonising countries treated the indigenous people, and vice versa. I learned in school, and college that, yes, Westerners stole the land from Native Americans. It wasn't always fair and often simply ugly...but, yes, it happened. I simply found the content about as encouraging as if I were a German reading about the Nazi's treatment of the Jewish people in the 30's and 40's. It simply wasn't what I expected and Audible graciously let me choose a different book.

Role Model

Revisado: 04-20-19

I just finished this book only two days after the release of the Mueller Report. That timing could not be better. Your book adds great credibility to what is in that report. Thank for your book, sir, and for choosing to narrate it yourself. There are not many men in Washington these days whom I would address as "Honorable", but you certainly deserve that form of address. Thank you for a job well done and and a book well written. May God bless you and your family, as well as the men and women of the FBI.

Different

A look at lighter side of a typical small law, not exactly what I would have expected from this top-notch author. Very enjoyable.

Woodward Scores Again

Revisado: 11-01-18

I thought at first it might be a recap of what I pretty much knew, but when I got to Chapter 27, wow, did it take off on what went on in the "Inner Sanctum"! Excellent as usual, Robert Woodward.
