What a horrible, lying, Christian jerk who happened to write a lot of crap books. I was thinking if you read his books, because you like this jerk, I'm quite certain that we could not be friends. If you read these books for research for how someone who is fucked in the head by Jesus think, then...

It has been awhile since I've really sat down and listened to an audiobook. I used to listen to them a great deal: when I was driving, working on projects, and even sometimes when I was reading! I learned to love them from my dad, who uses them when his eye strain is too bad but like me, he can't st...

An enjoyable, easy read. Seemed a bit embellished and read like fiction in places. Bill O'Reilly is an ass, but the book is ok. I'll give Killing Kennedy a read too.

PREFACEAs a person who is generally curious about historical events and the people involved in them, a book on Lincoln's assassination is something that piqued my interest.

The audio book, read by Bill O’Reilly, is excellent. At first I found his reading of it a bit distracting. I was more used to him being a conservative “talking head” on TV, rather than an author or a reader. However, soon I was captured by the book’s retelling of a brief period of Lincoln’s life and...

If you want the same old facts, read this book. If you are looking for a fresh view, or interesting backstory, move on. Over 100 pages of non relevant material mixed with cookie cutter History 101.

I listened to the first half of this book in audio, and finished it up by reading. This is the story of Lincoln's Assassination told in a diary type format, starting with the final days of the war in Virginia and ending with the fate of the conspiracy.What I liked: I always enjoy learning new thin...

Clooney, Pitt or DiCaprio? Well, who will it be? Consider: John Wilkes was a handsome, well-recognized, full-of-himself actor. And according to O'Reilly, he was angry and looking for more fame. So he assassinates a sitting US president. It's too good to be fiction. And history belongs to the b...
