Customer Review: I HAD HEARD ABOUT THE LAST LECTURE AND SAW RANDY ON THE OPRAH T.V. SHOW.
I BOUGHT THE BOOK THINKING IT WAS THE LAST LECTURE THAT HE GAVE AND THEN FOUND OUT THAT IT WAS JUST A RECAP OF SOME OF WHAT HE SAID. THEN I WATCHED THE LAST LECTURE ON YOUTUBE AND I WAS QUITE MOVED MY HIS COURAGE. I KNOW... more info
Customer Review: Jon Meacham's new biography of President Jackson is an interesting focus of Jackson in the White House.

Customer Review: Read this book if you know anything at all about Abraham Lincoln, or very little! The author has crafted a rich, detailed perspective of a man for all seasons, an American for all times. Our country longs for the depth and breath of his wisdom as much now as during the slice of history in which he... more info
