This book is the New York Times number one bestseller for a reason. I’ve read several of Bill O’Reilly’s previous books, including: The No Spin Zone, Who’s Looking Out For You, The O’Reilly Factor For Kids (I’m still a kid at heart), Culture Warrior, and A Bold Fresh Piece of humanity. I even read O’Reilly’s only novel: Those Who Pierce: […]
