Very poor recording sound December 12, 2008 M. Goetting (Manassas, Virginia) I love Bob Schieffer, and only bought this because I had listened to his "This Just In" recording. However, the sound quality is so bad that many of his word endings are lost and you have to guess or assume you know what he said. I was very disappointed.
A great book October 15, 2008 J. Manges I have a lot of respect for Bob Schieffer as he usually "tells it like it is". I found his new book, Bob Schieffer's America,to be honest, straight-forward, and quite often his humor would shine through. Since I don't watch all of his programs on TV, a lot of the material was new to me. I would consider this a book of moments in history as seen through his eyes, telling it like it is.
Bob Schieffer's America October 12, 2008 Shirley L. Butler (Springfield, VA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I enjoyed "America" very much as I got to go to a signing and met Bob Schieffer in person and hear his speech. He is certainly a very interesting Author and newsman.
If you like Bush you will like Schieffer October 9, 2008 Book buyer (Nowhere) Schieffer is a big buddy of, and apologist for, George W. Bush so if you like the worst and most unpopular President in this countries history then you will probably like this book.
Fabulous Wonderful Witty Intelligent Happy funny sad and just GREAT September 9, 2008 S. Roberts (Palm Springs, CA USA) 18 out of 19 found this review helpful
These are the essays Mr. Scheiffer says at the end of his program. They are ad libbed for the most part. They are witty, and oh so beautiful. Things about America, rural, urban... things about race, sports, media, just everything. It is the way he has ended his program for about five years when he did it once for someone. This will be #1. No matter where you stand politically, this book is one you can pick up anywhere and read one page and laugh or cry and put it down. It is marvelous and Thank you Mr. S finally. We have been asking for this book. Thank you. Buy it if you love America. Buy it if you love short little essays on people and feelings. JUST BUY IT!!!! sally
