Educational and Enjoyable

Great narrator. Enjoyed the chpice of stories and articles shared. Each one was like reliving pars of history and my own recollections of historical events and people. I would definitely recommend.

Background and insight on US social evolution

Personal insights & observations of US political and social issues over a writers lifetime. Thought provoking, inspirational and in some cases visionary.

Great Conservative Read

Loved it. Really enjoyed the commentary. She definitely puts in words the thoughts of a conservative intellectual. I never realized I should label myself as such.

Great Read!

Enjoyable read. Everyone should read this book. Thank you to the heroes of 9/11. God bless America!

A fine collection representing an admirable career

This collection of stories is both pertinent to our day and an at times happy, sometimes jarring reflection on the past.

Great collection of thoughtful, quality writings.

Hated to see it end. Thoughtful, well researched, well-written. A must read especially in today's political climate.

Articulate presentation of her ideas

It is clear why she became successful as a speech writer. An enjoyable insight into a different world.

Peggy understands and articulates the core of life

Peggy is one of the most insightful writers of our time. She has an amazing ability to drill to the core of what is happening in politics, family life, individuals hopes and dreams over the past few decades. Her beautiful and clear prose has a dignity to it lacking in so many journalists work of our time.She is grounded, she gets it whatever it is. She inspires us all to look for the good in others, but to be cautious and questioning when our leaders, church and state step out of line. I always look forward to every article she writes for the Wall Street Journal. I wish she had narrated the entire book. Her first narrator reads as though she was reading a fairy tale to a child. The second was much better and more like Peggy herself.

Very thoughtful

Always thoughtful, often moving. Makes you think deeply about our country and where it is headed.

A great & beautiful book of American Value

I really love the way this book is created & narrated. It's like your great aunt is very personally telling you how America were in those times and reminding you don't forget about those values.
