Story
General Stonewall Jackson was like no one anyone had ever seen. In April of 1862 he was merely another Confederate general with only a single battle credential in an army fighting in what seemed to be a losing cause. By middle June he had engineered perhaps the greatest military campaign in American history and was one of the most famous men in the Western World. He had given the Confederate cause what it had recently lacked: hope.

Story
Most diet books teach you to set short-term weight loss goals. Whether low-carb or low-fat, the typical plan goes like this: restrict your food choices, exercise until exhaustion, and swallow stacks of supplements. These “solutions” do a better job of lightening your wallet than lightening you. Meanwhile, the healthcare industry fails to prevent chronic disease. Rather than showing people how to remain healthy and prevent illness through proper nutrition, the system offers drugs and surgery to manage symptoms.

Good broad stroke information, but ended as a commercial for his business.

Well done.

Well read and so interesting.
I actually live a couple of miles from Turkey Scratch Arkansas so all those local names and places are familiar to me. I had seen Levon play a few times, at Shadden store and on Cherry Street in Helena Arkansas. He having been gone from here a long time before I was old enough, I didn't know him. I know him now.

Story
It was a devastating triple punch. Capping their four-year campaign to destroy the Trump presidency, the media portrayed a Democratic victory as necessary and inevitable. Big Tech, wielding unprecedented powers, vaporized dissent and erased damning reports about the Biden family’s corruption. Rigged is the definitive account of the 2020 election. Based on Mollie Hemingway’s exclusive interviews with campaign officials, reporters, Supreme Court justices, and President Trump himself, it exposes the fraud and cynicism behind the Democrats’ historic power grab.

Can you prove her wrong? If she is only 10% right, we must make a change and stop being sheep.

A disappointing ending
Reviewed: 01-24-19
The story was very good until the end. The ending was too simple and there was no resolution in my opinion. I felt let down after so many hours of listening.
