Thank you so much for your comments.
It seems obvious to me that the timing of the flop of the books and suddenly an about face.
Sorry to learn you bought it and didn’t enjoy it.
You are right about O’Reilly too.
To be fair to them, having written a book, it takes a lot of time and work and research. I just didn’t like the book. Others may have enjoyed it and may enjoy O’Reilly’s books. They’re just not for me. Why would I read O’Reilly’s Killing Lincoln when years ago I read The Day Lincoln was Shot by Jim Bishop?
