Colin Powell is the embodiment of the American dream. He was born in Harlem to immigrant parents from Jamaica. He knew the rough life of the streets. He overcame a barely average start at school. Then he joined the Army. The rest is history - including Vietnam, the Pentagon, Panama, and Desert Storm - but a history that until now has been known only on the surface.

Listened to it straight through without interruption. Inspired hearing his voice on the day of his funeral. Great biography!

Laurence Rees has spent 25 years meeting the survivors and perpetrators of the Third Reich and the Holocaust. In this sweeping history, he combines this testimony with the latest academic research to investigate how history's greatest crime was possible. Rees argues that while hatred of the Jews was at the epicenter of Nazi thinking, we cannot fully understand the Holocaust without considering Nazi plans to kill millions of non-Jews as well.

The content of our character is revealed in crises.
Reviewed: 06-24-21
Laurence Rees has done us a great service by holding up this mirror to our faces and having us take a good look at ourselves in history. Penetrating, poignant, powerful! “Never again”, we say! Rees lets us know that it will require more than the transient flare of our enthusiasms.
