This book was written before trumps first presidency and I am listening to it here in the summer of 2024. It is still so applicable to the man running again for president. What a wonderful insight into the morals and mindset of such a polarizing man. After reading this my desire to play a round with Trump has increased but I my desire to vote for him has decreased tremendously. Rick is right, Trump is not good for the game of golf, a game I learned from my father and now love sharing with my son.

Great story but it takes a while to build

I hate to criticize Michael Lewis and he has written so many great books but if I had one complaint about this one it would be about the massive amount of background given to the key characters. I encourage anyone considering stopping this book to press through. You will be glad you did.

Don’t give up

Revisado: 07-03-21

The 15-20 intro almost had me giving up on this book. Don’t make the mistake I almost did. Push through-it’s worth it.

Great message and a little long and drawn out at times

Revisado: 04-04-21

Just read the title-it says it all! I wish some of the detail was excluded and the writer could have made his point in a faster, more efficient manner

If you are huge Rob fan as I am, you have probably heard or read 90% of chapters 1-5. Most of it greatly comes from Rob’s wonderful white board talk for 8-10 years ago which was a work by the same title. Chapters 6-7 build on those familiar stories with new insight and depth. If have heard or read Rob’s past work about the wonders of the “bigness” and “smallness” of this life just jump to chapter 6-7 and save yourself the repeat. The information in chapters 1-5 was so good originally you won’t need the refresher.

Ethical Leadership Masterpiece

Revisado: 08-30-18

The first half to two-thirds of this book is one of the finest books on ethical leadership I have ever read. Growth through mentorship, successes, failure, and extreme personal loss molded Mr. Comey into a fine man and a great ethical leader. The final chapters are more informational, relating
to his days working during the 2016 presidential election and his time at the FBI under the Trump administration. These chapters are not as interesting to a student of leadership and simply show something that I believe most of us know: politics today are nasty, deceitful, and largely unethical. Not a friendly environment for an ethical leader such as Mr. Comey.

Enjoyed the history, analysis was politically skewed at times

Revisado: 05-29-18

It shouldn’t be surprising that a book written by educators is big on historical facts but short on political neutrality.
