Do You Hate America?

Revisado: 11-23-24

This book is for you --- if you hate America.

This book is for you --- if you do not understand why the Founding Fathers designed the Electoral College

This book is for you --- if you do not understand why the Founding Fathers intended Senators to represent their STATE and not be popularly elected to represent the People, a job the Founders assigned to the popularly elected House of Representatives

This book is for you --- if you think CNN and MSNBC are honest brokers of truth

Save your money - I certainly wish I had.

Weird

Revisado: 09-20-24

Written at a 3rd grade level. Good read for childless cat ladies, but weak plot.

Classic Grisham

Revisado: 09-11-24

I read this book long after I saw the movie, and as always the book is much better. One criticism = if Grisham has any input regarding who reads his books, Frank Muller should never be considered again. Michael Beck is amazing, as is Dennis Boutsikaris.

Save Your Money

Revisado: 08-27-24

Anyone born after 1955 - most Americans alive today - did not live through and experience the Watergate era. This book, written 50 years after the fact, attempts to explain/justify to readers with no contemporaneous knowledge that everything they thought they knew about the scandal is wrong.

Inasmuch as many of the direct Watergate participants are no longer alive today to tell their story, and inasmuch as "setting the record straight" benefits no one at this point, my recommendation would be to use your Audible credits more wisely and choose something else.

Facts are stubborn things: whether or not Nixon knew or participated in the planning, there was a "plumbers team," there were break ins a Dr. Fielding"s office and the DNC HQ, and there was a cover up that lasted more than a year. Even if everything author Shepard has written is 100% correct, to quote Hillary Clinton "At this point, what difference does it make?"

Very Needed Information

Revisado: 08-25-24

A great deal of valuable information, presented well by the authors. McLean has done excellent work in the past on Enron and the 2008 financial crisis, and I salute her research and writing. It does seem in this book she reveals her personal political point of view.

Went off the rails

Revisado: 06-27-24

Very interesting analysis of global shipping/commerce. Tended toward the wonky, which is a plus if you’re looking to gather knowledge.

Author went off the rails when he revealed his bias by blaming everything on global warming. Should have stuck with commerce and military data.

Eye Opening

Revisado: 11-11-23

Much of what Jason writes is known to anyone who has been paying attention these past few years, but the information in the book is likely to awaken many. Nice job.

Not even close to his best

Revisado: 11-04-23

The reader isn’t up to the task. Grisham usually has Michael Beck do the narration, and Beck is one of the best.

The return of the McDeere’s is formulaic and the payment of money is unbelievable. The ending seems like Grisham just got tired of writing.

Written for Americans

Revisado: 10-12-23

Awesome amount of information, and it should be required reading in every high school senior year, before colleges get a chance to pervert the thinking of our youth.

One small criticism for Mr. Levin: Your scholarship and your research are without equal, and I suspect we all share your passion for the truth. That said, I respectfully suggest you leave the narration to others whose voice is not so volatile.

Great Mystery

Revisado: 10-12-23

This was a great listen, The author dropped clues that could have led back to any of the characters. And I’d put the reader in the top five of all Audible’s crew.
