Troublesome Young Men: The Rebels Who Brought Churchill to Power and Helped Save England36 reviews
Lynne Olson

Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 2008

inspiring
This is the story of the men who brought down Chamberlain and installed Churchill as prime minister--an outcome that seemed unlikely at best when World War II began. Lynne Olson's account of these men and their times reads like a finely-crafted and eminently readable novel. Here are the coming out balls, the wire-tapping, the hostile press, the exclusive clubs, the public school mentality--the ...

A Question of Honor: The Kosciuszko Squadron: Forgotten Heroes of World War II50 reviews
Lynne Olson, Stanley Cloud

Vintage, 2004

*Forgotten?
I found this book to be a highly entertaining and informative read. The exploits of the 303,in particular, are thrilling. I do feel that some of the momentum is lost when dealing with the political machinations of Churchill and Roosevelt, however less exciting, it is very important that these be revealed. The authors did an outstanding job of this. I've seen reviews that say this is done "out of ...

The Murrow Boys: Pioneers on the Front Lines of Broadcast Journalism7 reviews
Lynne Olson, Stanley W. Cloud

Mariner Books, 1997

Excellent history and character study
The names Murrow, Sevareid, Collingwood, and Shirer have created standards that have been forgotten. Thought has been replaced by good looks. Read this book to see how CBS News became a news operation of mythic proportion with brilliant, yet terribly troubled men creating such high standards that have become forgotten. (You'll see no one on your local five pm television news here.) For ...

Slammin'
A couple of weeks ago, I was lucky enough to happen upon the book release party in New York that accompanied this amazing work. It features a selection of poetry from the 1998 National Slam Champion team, whose members have roots in the Nuyorican Poets Cafe in New York City. Compelled to buy this book immediately, I haven't been able to put it down since. The magic of this work truly ...

Freedom's Daughters: The Unsung Heroines of the Civil Rights Movement from 1830 to 19709 reviews
Lynne Olson

Scribner, 2002

The Way it Really Was
It seems the anatomy of revolutions is that they metamorphose and become tarnished, and the civil rights movement of the 60s (the Revolution, Baby! as we called it then) was no exception. With history, they become glamorized and give rise to fantasized, self-appointed heroes and revisionism. This book is TRUTH without TARNISH, and sets straight the record devised by many during the past three ...
