Scott Pelley
An inspiring memoir from the frontlines of history by the award-winning 60 Minutes correspondent.
Don’t ask the meaning of life. Life is asking, what’s the meaning of you?
With this provocative question, Truth Worth Telling introduces us to unforgettable people who discovered the meaning of their lives in the historic events of our times.
A 60 Minutes correspondent and former anchor of the CBS Evening News, Scott Pelley writes as a witness to events that changed our world. In moving, detailed prose, he stands with firefighters at the collapsing World Trade Center on 9/11, advances with American troops in combat in Afghanistan and Iraq, and reveals private moments with presidents (and would-be presidents) he’s known for decades. Pelley also offers a resounding defense of free speech and a free press as the rights that guarantee all others.
Above all, Truth Worth Telling offers a collection of inspiring tales that reminds us of the importance of values in uncertain times. For listeners who believe that values matter and that truth is worth telling, Pelley writes, "I have written this book for you."

Refreshing, emotional and honest.

Not five stars because some of the chapters are not as interesting. More often, the stories are well told and informative. The conclusion is excellent and probably should have been reflected in the introduction better. It might have put more readers into the correct frame of mind.
Worth a listen unless you don’t like to hear the truth- which unfortunately is a LOT of people.

Simply, one of the best books I have ever read.

Truth Worth Telling reads like a series of extended 60 Minutes segments, which is a very good thing. Mr. Pelley takes us through the most important events which he has covered in the last 30 years and, with the benefit of hindsight, gives a thorough overview of each. He never avoids the difficult stories or moments, which he always approaches head-on with kindness and humility (the chapters on 9/11, Nadia Murad and Sandy Hook are especially heart-wrenching). Throughout the book his dry wit and self-depreciating humor bring many lighter moments to otherwise difficult stories. I can count the books that made me both laugh out loud and cry on one hand, and this is one of them.
This book is a no-brainer for any fans of Mr. Pelley on 60 minutes or the CBS Evening News, which he anchored from 2011-2017. It really is a fantastic (although difficult at times) listen from start to finish. I'm not by any means patriotic, but Mr. Pelley makes me proud to be an American both by his love for his country and the fact that there are people like him in it who can make such a difference. Highly recommended.
