Blood Sport: The President and His Adversaries

Convinced this Republican
I read this book in 1997 when the paperback came out. I approached this book as a moderate GOP much in love with Reagan and Bush 41. I never voted for Clinton, but was intrigued by him for several reasons: 1) He was executing wonderfully in '97 (see Morris' "Behind the Oval Office" for this period), even though the GOP-dominated house had elevated partisan politics to the art form it is ...

Blind Eye: The Terrifying Story Of A Doctor Who Got Away With Murder

Required reading for anyone who receives medical care
I was given "Blind Eye" when I first began working at a physician monitoring program as a clinician. At the time, I was under the impression that because physicians have so much responsibility to "do no harm," they would automatically report themselves or fellow physicians if they believed they were impaired mentally, physically or emotionally. How wrong I was! "Blind Eye" represents the ...

Disney Disfunction
I read this book after reading Comic Wars by Dan Raviv which was also a corporate tell all type of book. Disney War was even better and it was really difficult to put down. It was truly amazing and somewhat comforting to know that even men and women we believe to have reached the top of their professions still exhibit the same human flaws of jealousy, distrust, insecurity, pettiness, and ...

The Partners: Inside America's Most Powerful Law Firms

James B. Stewart

Simon & Schuster, 1983

A great debut from James Stewart!
This was James Stewart's first book which portended the talent that would give us "Den of Thieves" and "Blood Sport," among others. Mr. Stewart is a great story teller - he can make a seemingly mundane subject into a real page-turner. The Partners offers fascinating insight into the rarified world of white-shoe New York law firms. Especially interesting is the story of Cravath, Swain and Moore ...

Recommended Reading for Nonfiction Narrative Writers
FOLLOW THE STORY is a joy to read. Any experienced nonfiction writer of features or narrative books will appreciate Stewart's personal stories because we are reassured that our ups-and-downs have been shared by a Pulitzer Prize recipient and Wall Street Journal editor. I re-read FOLLOW THE STORY while I was writing NIGHTMARE IN WICHITA: The Hunt for the BTK Strangler. Stewart's book helped ...

Den of Thieves

James B. Stewart

Touchstone Books, 1992

Will History Repeat Itself?
This is my favorite book of all time. It shows how highly intelligent, creative and hard working people can lose their ethical way. This was one of the first books that I read when I got out of college and I was absolutely riveted. The idea of the millions of dollars that many of these people made made me think of how I could get my hands on such wealth. It also taught me that there's no ...

Heart of a Soldier

Heart of a Soldier
This book is what our current life is really about in the Post 911 era. We visit two soldiers who live life together in Africa and then in Vietnam. It (at the end of the book) debunks our police frame work and the cover-ups of the Bush and Clinton Administrations. These two soldiers warn us of the impending Air Strikes against the Twin Towers years in advance. There can be no second guessing the ...

The Prosecutors: Inside the Offices of the Government's Most Powerful Lawyers

3 reviews
James B. Stewart

Simon & Schuster, 1987

James Stewart knows how to tell a story
This is an excellent collection of true life vignettes about prosecutors and the cases they work on. The chapter discussing Rudy Giuliani's tenure in the justice department during the Reagan administration (written long before he became mayor of NYC) is particularly interesting because it portrays him in a very unflattering light. An entirely different perspective on the man the country has come ...
