Story
Hillbilly Elegy is a passionate and personal analysis of a culture in crisis - that of white working-class Americans. The decline of this group, a demographic of our country that has been slowly disintegrating over 40 years, has been reported on with growing frequency and alarm but has never before been written about as searingly from the inside. J. D. Vance tells the true story of what a social, regional, and class decline feels like when you were born with it hung around your neck.

The research programs done on dogs here are a wonderful start to learning about what dogs are thinking without harming the dogs in any way. I would gladly volunteer my dog to participate in this program. I would love to know what she is thinking.

Story
Donald Trump is unlike any president we've ever had. He is the only person ever elected to be commander in chief who has not first held public office or served as a general in the military. His principles grow out of five decades of business and celebrity success - not politics - so he behaves differently from traditional politicians.

Newt Gingrich is an exceptional narrator, his voice and Tempo made the book very enjoyable to listen to. President Trumps tenacity and dedication to this country are truly amazing. We are the same age and I have far less energy than President Trump. I learned a lot from this book and look forward to reading more in the next one.
