I decided to listen to Edward Klein's bestselling book, The Amateur, while driving to family cemeteries on a Memorial Day road trip. This "stunning expose' . . . by former editor-in-chief of the New York Times . . . pulls back the curtain on one of the most secretive White Houses in history (and) . . . . reveals a callow, thin-skinned, arrogant president with messianic dreams of grandeur supported by a cast of true-believers, all of them united by leftist politics and an amateurish understanding of executive leadership."
The Amateur isn't one of those tedious political books--it is alive with reports taken from interviews of people in the know, both friends and foe of President Obama.
There was no danger of me falling asleep at the wheel!
