JengoFet's Favorite Books!!

  • Craig Unger: The Fall of the House of Bush
    The untold story of how a band of radical, true believers descended upon and gained control of the Executive Branch. The same author wrote the highly reknowned book "House of Bush, House of Saud" which detailed the far too close personal relationship between two governments, AND two families, whose primary interest is to make money by selling oil...more for the families than for the governments. Meaning, much like the United States and its failure to acknowledge the help it's own people need, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia fails to help its people who have not been fortunate enough to make it big in the oil game. Therefore, they sweep them aside and hope the rest of the world won't notice. Books like these are intended to make people notice.
  • Selwyn Raab: The Five Families
    This is the absolute encycopedia of Mafia Fmilies as they have impacted the American landscape since they first appeared during the early 1900's. It tells the stories of the main Five Families in New York as well as other members of the "Commission". Yet, it is also an interesting book as you read about law enforcements struggle to bring down the mafia and the way the mafia keeps bouncing back. All in all it is an interesting read for anyone who is a reader/fan of true crime books.
  • Robert Young Pelton: The World's Most Dangerous Places
    A guidebook for those who wish to travel and see the world "outside the box"....so to speak. It takes you to the most dangerous areas of the world, whether from War, Famine, or Disease, among a host of other dangerous issues, and teaches you how to, hopefully, survive there. Although, it does not guarrantee your survival. After all, if it did, where would the fun be in that??
  • Eleanor Roosevelt: You Learn By Living: Eleven keys for a more fulfilling life.
    This book is especially essential reading for females, like myself, as we live life and wind up when we are fifty realizing we did not live our life for ourselves but for everyone around us. Eleanor Roosevelt, being one of the classiest women in history, writes in this book her own common-sense approaches to leading a life worth living. I highly recommend it.
