- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Schieffer relates details about some of the most interesting, important, famous, and infamous news stories he has covered during his long career. He also covers his personal life and the network news business. It was a very interesting and enjoyable book. Schieffer, although a very distinguished news reporter comes across as a very down-to-earth and likable guy. He has had, and continues to have, a remarkable career with CBS news.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Bob Schieffer who spent his life in journalism and was the anchor of 'Face the Nation'. He offers a behind-the-scenes account of his more than forty years in journalism, including coverage of the White House, the Pentagon, the State Department, and Capitol Hill. Mr. Schieffer also discusses his reporting of Kennedy's assassination, the civil rights movement, Vietnam, Watergate and September 11, 2001. You can tell that he enjoyed his career as a journalist and seems to be honest in his recollection of his career. And his brushes with those he interacted with. Though he does name drop and seem to let us know when ever fate favored him. Other then some of the few self-serving statements on his personal life and social climbing, his anecdotes are still worth reading. Even though he seems to never have met a person he didn't like. Do not expect to learn anything new, but it will jog your memory of many familiar events.
