Schwoebel

Starts off like Mark Twain, ends like Roosevelt

Revisado: 09-15-20

The book starts off amazingly, but ends with the same old browbeating.

In the beginning it's thoughtful and detailed with the nuances of turn of the 20th century activity.

But at the end we got a very broad brush overview of the sins of our fathers that I've heard a million times.

If you want to write a book about each of those conflicts with the same depth as you did this book, please do, until then.. Cut that chapter.

How do we rate non-fiction?

Revisado: 07-15-20

This book was well researched, probably.

It wasn't entertaining. It's one of those books that will make you better at Trivial Pursuit, but it won't shatter your world view.

I'm glad I listened to it, but I'm not clambering to listen to it again.

A good listen

Revisado: 05-23-20

Anything read by JR is worth listening to, even the phone book.

But this isn't an earth shattering book by any means.

The story of Jan was a nice thread throughout with a heart wrenching ending.

JR is the greatest, this book doesn't attract or detract from that fact.

Listen to this book if you just like hearing about hat goes on behind the curtain.

Balanced

Revisado: 04-02-20

Steve does a good job at presenting a balanced account of the 90's federal political scene.

The book was highly informative. Nice work.

That's it?

Revisado: 01-15-20

I feel let down if this is the last part of the series. We spent three full books investing in the characters to see them done dirty like this.

Did Joshua get bored and want it over with?

I recommend that everyone listen to the whole series, but this latest book was a really disappointing ending submission.

Could have been an hour shorter

Revisado: 01-15-20

The entire chapter about air superiority at the end of the book could have been trimmed and it would have been an improvement. That section dragged a lot and didn't really follow the theme of the book. I know context Is important to the author, but for this book, that long exploration of context could have been left out and released as a Hardcore History Addendum.

Congrats on the book and I will most assuredly listen to it ageen, and a ageen, and ageen.

A great book that moves along.

Revisado: 10-22-18

This book concentrates on the characters and the events that surround them. If you are looking to feel as if you are part of the world the characters live in, stay away. But if you are looking for a very strong, well written, action packed, emotional saga... Come on down.
