In minute-by-minute detail, esteemed White House historian and political analyst Chris Whipple chronicles the unprecedented drama as it unfolds.

Four mysteries, each a page-turner. When scenes change, you easily understand the geographical location and which characters are involved. Many surprises, both good and bad, along the way.

Story
The New York Times Magazine’s award-winning “1619 Project” issue reframed our understanding of American history by placing slavery and its continuing legacy at the center of our national narrative. This new book substantially expands on that work, weaving together 18 essays that explore the legacy of slavery in present-day America with 36 poems and works of fiction that illuminate key moments of oppression, struggle, and resistance.

Definitely too long, but beautifully done. It focuses the listener or reader on the inequities that began with slavery through today. It also points out how the US has benefited from these inequities. Worthwhile.

This book, in an easy to follow manner, does describe Donald Trump’s finances from the first gift from his father to multimillion dollar fines levied against him in 2023-2024. Regarding all the deals he considered great at signing, it turns out that most were poor business decisions.

Tolstoy novels have many characters, each with 4 or 5 names it seems. It was not too difficult to understand what was going on. And what was going on was constantly interesting. A classic, beautifully written.

Anthony Fauci is arguably the most famous–and most revered–doctor in the world today. His role guiding America sanely and calmly through Covid (and through the torrents of Trump) earned him the trust of millions during one of the most terrifying periods in modern American history, but this was only the most recent of the global epidemics in which Dr. Fauci played a major role. His crucial role in researching HIV and bringing AIDS into sympathetic public view and his leadership in navigating the Ebola, SARS, West Nile, and anthrax crises, make him truly an American hero.

Listening to this book was as if Tony Fauci was sitting in my living room telling me about the pandemics, near pandemics, and flops he had experienced. Always a doctor first and an administrator second, third, or fourth.
