I riveting look inside the twin towers on that fateful day. An introduction to many of the men and women who risked all to help friends as well as strangers, many giving their lives in the struggle.

Great Book. I wanted to slap my mother for not feeding me correctly while I was growing up and emphasizing how important it was to take my multivitamins and the added supplements. She could have also told me that I needed more exercise and I needed to work out EVERY DAY and I should be playing more sports and keep playing until I was soaked with sweat. How I made it this far I just don't know. No Wonder I have wrinkles and I need glasses at 75 years old. I Should be 75 years YOUNG! Dammit Mom!

Killing Kennedy: The End of Camelot (Audio CD) (Unabridged)
Review Date: 10/8/2019


Bill O'Reilly is a consummate story teller. Killing Kennedy is a great historic document explaining one of the most tragic stories of the 20th century. A very good read.

Jack needs to get a sports car.


Letters from Nuremberg: My Father's Narrative of a Quest for Justice
Review Date: 9/7/2016


Once you get past all the mush about how much he loves and misses his wife, all the whining about how stupid all the other lawyers, officers, and advisors were, and what a putz this guy really was, it a should be a very interesting book, unfortunately, it isn't.
With his interaction with, and knowledge of the prisoners this should have been a great read. If he had just gotten to the meat of the trials, his observations, and something about the defendant's reasoning and justification for their actions during the reign of the Nazis, this book could have been be a great piece of history.
I had to put this book down before I got to the end and turn to the last chapter to read the verdicts and sentences. There was nothing about HOW the judges came to their decisions or reactions of the defendants.
All in all this book isn't worth a read, I finally tossed it in the round file, where it belongs.

I like most Janet Evanovich books, they are generally very entertaining. This one was not her best effort. Too bad I can't send it back!

It's like mark Twain is telling the story of his life himself! Riveting!


The Murder of King Tut: The Plot to Kill the Child King (Audio CD) (Unabridged)
Review Date: 6/14/2015


Good book. The author does not claim historical accuracy, but does includea lot of truths as well as a lot of fiction and conjecture. I fun read for a history buff.

I don't know. I ordered it 22 days before leaving for a long deployment in Europe in the Near East and it didn't arrive before I left. Since I am not home, and I wont't be home for another year, I can't make a determination. I was able to pick up another book on Joomla so I would have a reference while I was out of the country, trying to work on some projects, and IT was helpful. Anyway, if ti's it's there when I get home, I will let you know what I think.

A thriller!


River God (Ancient Egyptian, Bk 1) (Audio CD) (Abridged)
Review Date: 6/21/2016


I read the unabridged version before ordering the abridged audio book. Dick Hill is a great reader, the abridged version of this great book was less than satisfying, in fact it was just plain bad. I would absolutely NOT recommend the abridged version of this book. All the important parts of the book are missing, After reading (listening to) this book I got an unabridged version, again read by Dick Hill, and it was great! usually I don't bother with abridged books, I think from this point forward, I will stick with the real deal.
