This was a sixty minute audio CD of presidential speeches by Presidents Franklin D. Roosevelt, Kennedy, Nixon, Reagan, and Clinton. I have to say that I was a little disappointed in this audio book. It said it included the greatest presidential speeches of the 20th century, but I would disagree with some to the choices. For instance, it did not include John F Kennedy's "Ask Not What Your Country Can Do For You" speech from his 1961 inaugural address. It did include a "Berlin Wall" speech by show more Ronald Reagan, but it was not the original speech that he gave while standing in front of the Brandenburg Gate at the Berlin Wall. It was a speech that he gave later, in which he mentions the original speech.

It included Franklin D. Roosevelt's "Declaration of War" speech which he gave after the bombing of Pearl Harbor, which is a great speech, but it left out several of his other great speeches. Meanwhile, it included Bill Clinton's "New Covenant" State of the Union Address, which I did not find that interesting or exciting. show less

It's not a book. It's a button toy that plays music, so why make it look like a book.
