From 1783, when German immigrant John Jacob Astor first arrived in the United States, until 2009, when Brooke Astor’s son, Anthony Marshall, was convicted of defrauding his elderly mother, the Astor name occupied a unique place in American society. The family fortune, first made by a beaver trapping business that grew into an empire, was then amplified by holdings in Manhattan real estate. Over the ensuing generations, Astors ruled Gilded Age New York society and inserted themselves into political and cultural life, but also suffered the most famous loss on the Titanic.

Few figures in American politics have seen more and said less than Mitt Romney. An outspoken dissident in Donald Trump’s GOP, he has made headlines in recent years for standing alone against the forces he believes are poisoning the party he once led. Romney was the first senator in history to vote to remove from office a president of his own party. When that president’s supporters went on to storm the US Capitol, Romney delivered a thundering speech from the Senate floor accusing his fellow Republicans of stoking insurrection.

Millions of people–looking to cheat on their partners–signed up for Ashley Madison in the early 2000s, seeking a private space to share their public desires. The promise of discretion was shattered in the summer of 2015, when anonymous hackers stole the company’s cache of user information and published it worldwide. The result? One of the most shocking data breaches of the internet age. Overnight, millions of unfaithful spouses had their real names, addresses and sexual preferences published online in a searchable database that anyone could browse.

When Michael Lewis first met him, Sam Bankman-Fried was the world’s youngest billionaire and crypto’s Gatsby. CEOs, celebrities, and leaders of small countries all vied for his time and cash after he catapulted, practically overnight, onto the Forbes billionaire list. Who was this rumpled guy in cargo shorts and limp white socks, whose eyes twitched across Zoom meetings as he played video games on the side? In Going Infinite Lewis sets out to answer this question, taking listeners into the mind of Bankman-Fried.

In the summer of 1985, a brilliant young British DNA scientist Helena Greenwood is found murdered in her front garden in a quiet suburb in California. The police believe they know the killer’s identity but there’s no evidence against him, and the only thing linking him to the crime is the fact he’d been charged with sexually assaulting Helena just a few months previously.

Best-selling author Bryan Burrough recently made a shocking discovery: The small town of Temple, Texas, where he had grown up, had harbored a dark secret. One of his high school classmates, Danny Corwin, was a vicious serial killer. In this chilling tale, Burrough raises important questions of whether serial killers can be recognized before they kill or rehabilitated after they do. It is also a story of Texas politics and power that led the good citizens of the town of Temple to enable a demon who was their worst nightmare.

Experience a bold take on this classic autobiography as it’s performed by Oscar-nominated Laurence Fishburne. In this searing classic autobiography, originally published in 1965, Malcolm X, the Muslim leader, firebrand, and Black empowerment activist, tells the extraordinary story of his life and the growth of the Human Rights movement. His fascinating perspective on the lies and limitations of the American dream and the inherent racism in a society that denies its non-White citizens the opportunity to dream, gives extraordinary insight into the most urgent issues of our own time.

It took me a lifetime to have the courage and the clarity to write my memoir. I want to tell the story of the moments - the ups and downs, the triumphs and traumas, the debacles and the dreams - that contributed to the person I am today. This book is composed of my memories, my mishaps, my struggles, my survival, and my songs. Unfiltered. I went deep into my childhood and gave the scared little girl inside of me a big voice. I let the abandoned and ambitious adolescent have her say, and the betrayed and triumphant woman I became tell her side.

So overdue!
What a pleasure to listen to the story of Pat Nixon, what she endured for so long and her resilience, the lasted out as long as possible. I find it sickening that no president or first lady attended her funeral. This woman lived a heroic life in the midst of nonstop adversity. May she rest in peace.

A Wonderfully Told Story
Julie does a great job of giving us insight into her mothers personality and life. Additionally, all of the accounts were very well researched and she put a lot of time into getting quotes from other people who came into their lives.
It was an enjoyable listen to hear about Pat's early life (although it was sad) and how she ended up marrying Richard Nixon. Like so many of us, they started out in life with big dreams and high hopes.
Pat was on indomitable spirit and cared about other people.
I am not a political person so I had no opinion on the politics.
In this as well as other biographies I have read so many times the news media never tells the real story. It makes me sick to my stomach how they can whip people (their audience) into a frenzy to the point that they lose all perspective and so easily pass judgment on others basically ruining their lives just so they can sell a story.
I admire Julie for writing so very well this story about her family. She put a lot of heart into it. Jennie did an awesome job of reading. She emphasized different voices, which is not an easy thing to do.
Although it was a sad story in parts, it was also a story of a family who stuck together and held each other up during the hard times. They also got to live quite an exciting life and got to experience some amazing things.

Well written, horrible audio
This is a wonder book from the perspective of the writing. The narration by Jennie Eisenhower is great as well, but it is truly painful listening as it sounds like it was recorded in an empty house with no furniture or carpet. It is very tinny and and has a persistent echo.
Whoever produced and engineered this recording certainly did not to justice to the otherwise excellent book about Mrs. Nixon by her daughter.
