Few figures in American politics have seen more and said less than Mitt Romney. An outspoken dissident in Donald Trump’s GOP, he has made headlines in recent years for standing alone against the forces he believes are poisoning the party he once led. Romney was the first senator in history to vote to remove from office a president of his own party. When that president’s supporters went on to storm the US Capitol, Romney delivered a thundering speech from the Senate floor accusing his fellow Republicans of stoking insurrection.

Ronald Reagan today is a conservative icon, celebrated for transforming the American domestic agenda and playing a crucial part in ending communism in the Soviet Union. In his masterful new biography, H. W. Brands argues that Reagan, along with FDR, was the most consequential president of the 20th century. Reagan took office at a time when the public sector, after a half century of New Deal liberalism, was widely perceived as bloated and inefficient, an impediment to personal liberty.

Yet amid the turns of that now legendary 1946 campaign, Nixon's finer attributes quickly gave way to unapologetic ruthlessness. It is a stunning overture to John A. Farrell's magisterial portrait of a man who embodied postwar American cynicism.

Story
For his victims, for their families and for the investigators tasked with finding him, the senselessness and brutality of the Golden State Killer's acts were matched only by the powerlessness they felt at failing to uncover his identity. Then, on April 24, 2018, authorities arrested 72-year-old Joseph James DeAngelo at his home in Citrus Heights, Calif., based on DNA evidence linked to the crimes. Amazingly, it seemed, evil finally had a name. Please note: This work contains descriptions of violent crime and sexual assault and may not be suitable for all listeners.

Calvin Coolidge, president from 1923 to 1929, never rated highly in polls, and history has remembered the decade in which he served as an extravagant period predating the Great Depression. Now Amity Shlaes provides a fresh look at the 1920s and its elusive president, showing that the mid-1920s was in fact a triumphant period that established our modern way of life: The nation electrified, Americans drove their first cars, and the federal deficit was replaced with a surplus.

James Madison was a true genius of the early republic, the leader who did more than any other to create the nation we know today. This majestic new biography tells his story. Outwardly reserved, Madison was the intellectual driving force behind the Constitution. His visionary political philosophy was a crucial factor behind the Constitution’s ratification, and his political savvy was of major importance in getting the new government underway.

Domestically, he overreacted to 9/11 and endangered Americans' civil liberties.

Great book. Long and love every minute of it. Clinton tackles all the major events of his Presidency with honesty and tells humerous stories from his childhood. This autobiography is a must have in collections of Presidential bios. There's a magic to listening to Bill's own words. This book reads well sequentially with Bush's Decision Points.

I didn’t want it to end.
Even after the insane amount of time it took to finish, I was disappointed it did finish. I think he was pretty forthcoming on all his decisions and the issues he faced including the Monica issue. Interesting to see how he started in politics and how he reiterates that there has been a plot to come after him. I think he was a great president but he made some mistakes which he paid for and he mentions them clearly. Great insight into how he made decisions and how the people he was with all his life influenced and how he took pride in making those decisions. The technical issues of chapters were off so it was hard to determine what chapter you were on but this was a great book if you are into politics and enjoy “reading” about it. Be prepared it’s a long book.

Vital for understanding modern day politics
Great story, well told, well performed. The presidential years start to sound a bit like resume reading, but that’s to be expected of any presidential memoir. The lead up to the presidency is the most gripping portion.

Compelling and well-delivered
The narrator sounded so much like President Clinton that I had to constantly remind myself it wasn’t him speaking.
This story takes you from childhood to his last day in the White House. It kept my interest and answered many questions about the policies Clinton implemented. It was disappointing to hear that he was working to solve problems that still exist today, and to learn we’ve made little progress toward righting the wrongs in this Nation in the past 20 years.

This book actually helps me to understand what is happening now. The struggles between the right and the left continues today.

Would have preferred Bill Clinton to have done the reading, as the narrator was not as good as he would have been! Overly long, could have been more condensed, but learned a lot. Bill did so much for this country and for world peace! Wish he was in office again!
