Book Review: Victory

5 Reasons why you should pick up Victory by Peter Schweizer from the library this weekend:

1. Here’s the subtitle - “The Reagan Administration’s Secret Strategy That Hastened the Collapse of the Soviet Union.”  Doesn’t that make you want to read it?
2. It reads like a John Grisham novel, except it’s all true.
3. If you say you don’t have time, here’s another option: you can order it on tape and listen to it as you drive to work.  Listen to a true historical thriller?  How much better does it get?
4. Peter Schweizer draws upon extensive interviews with senior Reagan officials.  It is well researched, well documented, and well written.
5. Schweizer explores the fascinating connection between the Reagan Administration and the Vatican during the Cold War and discusses how the President and the Pope worked together to bring down communism.

Short and sweet - it’s one of my favorite books.  If you haven’t read it, you’re missing out.
