THIS JUST IN

You recognize his voice immediately. Close your eyes, and you think you're listening to CBS's FACE THE NATION. Veteran reporter Bob Schieffer has many fascinating notes of his own about events of the late twentieth century. For example, after JFK's assasination, while everyone interviewed Oswald's wife, Schieffer interviewed his mother. He also tells of his own experiences covering the Vietnam War. This bestseller is more than a look at four decades of famous events and people; it's Schieffer's personal memoir. He always tells it professionally, sometimes with humor. Having sampled the book, this reviewer found the audio version more enjoyable. A.L.H. (c) AudioFile 2003, Portland, Maine [Published: JUN/JUL 03]
