Purchase The Real George Washington (American Classic Series)

If you want to learn about the American Revolution and its cause this is the book for you. Outstanding book and well researched and what I read in this book most of the events were never taught to me as I was going to elementary school and high school and I am over age 50. This book describes the ups and downs George Washington faced when he was commander of the contential army in 1776 through the end of the war in 1781. This book just highligts the fact of what free men will do to fight for the freedom of the American cause during the tryanny rule of the British empire in that time.Get more detail about The Real George Washington (American Classic Series).

Order The Blind Side (Movie Tie-in Edition) (Movie Tie-in Editions)

Read the incredible true story of Baltimore Ravens lineman Michael Oher (pronounced OAR). One of thirteen children born to a crack addict mother, Oher spent his formative years on the streets of Memphis - times where neither the state nor the schools had any record of his existence.

But through a chance meeting with the Tuohy family at Briarcrest Christian High School, Oher becomes part of a family, attends school regularly, plays sports - and gets a chance in life. It's a powerful story with many great messages (although I did skim over the lengthy descriptions of the development of the left tackle in the NFL).Get more detail about The Blind Side (Movie Tie-in Edition) (Movie Tie-in Editions).

Shop For The Bridge: The Life and Rise of Barack Obama

The White House has been home to many colorful characters in the more than two centuries since it was first occupied in 1800-think of the polymath Thomas Jefferson, the swashbuckling Andrew Jackson, and the big game hunter and peacemaker Teddy Roosevelt-but Barack Obama is at least their equal. With a life story no Hollywood screenwriter would dare concoct, President Obama is the avatar of multicultural America. In David Remnick's formulation, he is "the bridge" between white and black, the elite and the street, and-equally important-between the generation of African-Americans who followed Martin Luther King, Jr., and John Lewis in the civil rights movement, and those who were born too late to have experienced its pains and joys directly.

This is familiar territory to anyone who has dipped even briefly into the flood of writing about Barack Obama, much of it essentially biographical, and Remnick brings few new insights to the story. However, what he brings is the fruit of hundreds of interviews with Obama himself, his closest aides and advisers, as well as others in the media and academia who can help cast light on the workings of the President's mind.

The special emphasis in this book is race. Remnick follows the threads of Obama's own journey of self-discovery and his sometimes-troubled interaction with others, especially older leaders, in Chicago's African-American populous diaspora, and he puts Obama's rise to the presidency in historical perspective as an expression of the black community's centuries-long struggle for equality in America. To Remnick, Dr. King and his colleagues represented the "Moses generation," destined to approach the walls of Jericho but never to enter the promised land beyond. Obama embodies the "Joshua generation" that stands on the shoulders of its parents and now seeks to claim the fruits of this historic struggle.

David Remnick is best known now as editor of The New Yorker for the past dozen years, but in his relatively short life-he's just a few years older than his subject in The Bridge-he distinguished himself as a reporter, first for the Washington Post and later for the New York Times. He won a Pulitzer for Lenin's Tomb, the 1993 book based on his years as Moscow correspondent for the Post.

The Glass Castle: A Memoir

This is an extraordinary book. Ms. Walls tells an amazing story of survival of herself & family. I was engaged in her life from the first sentance. The fact that this is a true story made me wince many times. I couldn't wait to read more about her once I finished the book. I was astounded that the family not only survived, but were highly functioning adults. I have been recommending this to everyone I meet.Get more detail about The Glass Castle: A Memoir.

The Bedwetter: Stories of Courage, Redemption, and Pee Review

I have followed Sarah's comedy ever since her SNL days (I have always had a huge crush on her). She is on a very short list of girls that are actually funny and I'd put her on the top with Mary Lynn Rajskub (both were players on Mr. Show). I think this book shows a vulnerable side to Sarah. The bed wetting thing is such a terrible stage to go through for kids especially if they don't have understanding or compassionate parents. Sarah manages to make the issue funny as well as almost providing help for someone who may have experienced the issue.

The stories about her family are great. It's cool to see the influences she's had from her father to her sisters. I may be a little biased but I love this book and I can appreciate the twisted mind of Sarah Silverman. Congrats Sarah.Get more detail about The Bedwetter: Stories of Courage, Redemption, and Pee.
