Resumen del Editor

Foreword by Rabbi Abraham Cooper, Associate Dean, Simon Wiesenthal Center

A real-life adventure story told by a New York Times bestselling author and war correspondent who reveals how he became a hostage, an arms dealer, and an Israeli spy.

And the Rest Is History takes listeners on a traveling circus from Paris to Beirut, Baghdad, and beyond, introducing them to spies and terrorists, arms dealers and crooks, and along the way reveals a few surprises about the secret underbelly of recent history you won’t find in WikiLeaks. This book pinpoints precisely when the era of “fake news” actually began in America, and will change the way you think about journalism and journalists.

It includes:

• riveting testimony of the author’s torture and born-again experience as a hostage in a Beirut cellar;

• unusual insight into the beginnings of the Iran-Contra scandal;

• eyewitness reporting from the battlefields of the Middle East;

• the inside scoop on Saddam Hussein’s WMD programs;

• astonishing stories of French government dirty tricks, the intelligence underworld, Israeli hostage negotiations, and the real-life escapades of a Soviet sleeper agent.

And the Rest Is History is a reporter’s journey from Left-Bank leftist to born-again Christian conservative. But most of all it’s a rollicking good listen full of unusual characters, places, and events you will never hear about on the evening news.

Great Book!

This book is a great reminder of, those who forget history are doomed to repeat it. I was alive during all of the events mentioned in this book but, was completely unaware of what was going on. I didn’t really start paying attention to world news or politics until the mid 1980’s. I preferred to cast my vote and live my life. Now, I see why our country and indeed the world is in such a mess, and it’s not new. I’m not sure we as a once Great Nation will hold onto that banner much longer. The entire world is in the grip of an evil wickedness that I don’t see any way, humanly speaking, will see any resolve before the return of The Lord Jesus Christ.
I applaud Mr. Timmerman for his bravery in publishing “the truth”, because it surely is not heard on our “far too many” News stations. We need these folks to put the truth out there and may it serve those who are hungry for the way life actually is. I would recommend this book and his other writings, as well.

Journalist American Hero

My sincere thanks and gratitude to Mr. Timmerman for his diligence and service to our nation. For uncovering the truth and exposing it for what it is. Welcome my friend to the Republican Party and to your continuing efforts to expose the truth to all of us willing to listen. You are an inspiration to me and I will be forever grateful for your existence!

Well Worth Reading

While it’s sad to think what is reported here is happening in our nation, it rings true based on what I’ve seen and experienced. My question is how can we the people ever stop those who are supposed to be protecting our nation from continuing to sell our enemies the weapons the need to destroy us and our republic?
