Very Informative with Info not in news media
Mr. Comey's book is an autobiography of his entire career, not just the Trump era. It even starts with relevant events from his boyhood. He writes clearly about just facts of which he has personal knowledge. I liked that. He covers his service as a U.S. attorney, and his service for Bush and Obama administrations then gets to Trump in chapter 11. He tries to write the facts objectively and without extrapolation. Since this book deals only with his personal knowledge of events, it is not an overview of those events. It's an autobiography. Only the last 20% of the book deals with the Trump administration. Frankly I liked it very much. I'm impressed with his straightforward and honest recounting of events.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht

Honest, well thought out and imperative reading.
A must read for any American interested in the direction our country is heading currently. Comey dedicated his career to the basic values of honesty, professionalism and justice. We are being subjugated to wildly ego driven governing, destructive and to the benefit only of the self importance of a truly immoral man and his mindless followers.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Neu
