Bill O'Reilly

Abraham Lincoln var den første amerikanske presidenten som ble myrdet. Han rangeres av mange historikere som USAs mest betydningsfulle president ved siden av George Washington. Drapet fant sted for 150 år siden, i påsken 1865, rett etter at Den amerikanske borgerkrigen var slutt og Lincoln hadde maktet å hindre total splittelse av den unge nasjonen. Lincoln hygget seg sammen med sin kone på Ford`s Theatre i Washington, da skuddet falt. Presidenten lå blødende igjen. Drapsmannen flyktet. Midt under feiringen av at borgerkrigen var slutt, fikk amerikanerne den sjokkerende nyheten: Presidenten er død! Denne spennende boken er en bestselger i USA med et salg hittil på nesten to millioner eksemplarer.

Little did she know that she was, early in his career as a troublemaker, defining the essence of Bill O'Reilly and providing him with the title of his brash and entertaining issues-based memoir. In his most intimate book yet, O'Reilly goes back in time to examine the people, places, and experiences that launched him on his journey from working-class kid to immensely influential television personality and bestselling author.

At the same time that he calls the famous and powerful to account, he dares to get personal, questioning just how much our closest friends, families, and lovers do look out for us, and delivering a powerful message about personal responsibility and self-reliance in an uncertain world.
