Booknotes: America's Finest Authors on Reading, Writing, and the Power of Ideas by Brian Lamb is a series of short interviews with a huge number of authors.
Started: sometime in 2008
Completed: 2/1/2011
Recommendation: It is rather dated, so a book that was intended to be "current" is not.
Recommended by: Found in a library book sale and was intrigued.
Review:
This book does not really lend itself to a review, so I'm just noting books that I'd like to read as a result of having read this book:
The Man in the Mirror: The Life of Benedict Arnold, Clare Brandt
Edison: Inventing the Century, Neil Baldwin
Lincoln, David Herbert Donald
A Bright Shining Lie: John Paul Vann and America in Vietnam, Neil Sheehan
All of One Peace, Colman McCarthy
Failure is Impossible: Susan B. Anthony in Her Own Words, Lynn Sherr
One Hundred Years of Solitude, Gabriel Garcia Marquez (recommended by Bill Clinton)
The Supreme Court: How it Was and How It Is, William Rehnquist
