As he describes his efforts to control his company's burn rate -- the amount of money the company consumes in excess of its income -- Wolff offers a no-holds-barred portrait of unaccountable successes and major disasters, including the story behind Wired magazine and its fanatical founder, Louis Rossetto; the rise of America Online, perhaps the most dysfunctional successful company in history, and the humiliating inability of people such as Bill Gates to untangle the intricacies of the Web.

National Bestseller An enlightening and utterly convincing re-examination of the allied aerial bombing campaign and of civilian German suffering during World War II—an essential addition to our understanding of world history. During the Second World War, Allied air forces dropped nearly two million tons of bombs on Germany, destroying some 60 cities, killing more than half a million German citizens, and leaving 80, pilots dead.
Much of the bombing was carried out against the expressed demands of the Allied military leadership. Hundreds of thousands of people died needlessly.
Focusing on the crucial period from to , and using a compelling narrative approach, Fire and Fury tells the story of the American and British bombing campaign through the eyes of those involved: military and civilian command in America, Britain, and Germany, aircrew in the sky, and civilians on the ground. Acclaimed historian Randall Hansen shows that the Commander-in-Chief of Bomber Command, Arthur Harris, was wedded to an outdated strategy whose success had never been proven; how area bombing not only failed to win the war, it probably prolonged it; and that the US campaign, which was driven by a particularly American fusion of optimism and morality, played an important and largely unrecognized role in delivering Allied victory.

Tanner, his companions, and the Beasts head for a final showdown with Derthsin when they discover that the last piece of the Mask of Anoret can be found in Derthsin's lair. If you are one of those who wonder how he did it and how an unlikely president came to power, this book will give you some answers and inside information that comes from within the White House. Michael Wolff has done significant research about the administration of Trump, so this book is a perspective that works like a "behind the scenes" that has unleashed a great controversy in the media.
The reader can find, regarding this administration, who the main characters are, what their interactions are like and what their true opinion of Trump is. Fire and Fury, the result of hundreds of conversations with high-ranking personalities, had to advance its publication in January because the president tried to ban it, a counterproductive action because the demand increased.
Wolff's prose reflects the profile of ineptitude and inability to govern that Trump demonstrated as soon as the White House arrived and which remained consistent from the first two hundred days of his rule. His intention throughout the campaign had been to become the most famous man on the planet, but he did not believe he would make it to the White House. However, everything changed immediately: the fear was transformed into confidence and optimism, despite its lack of knowledge of national and foreign policy, among other shortcomings.
He began to believe that, since people had voted for him, he really deserved the position, thanks to which he would return the grandeur to his country. He transferred that same confidence to his assistants and made them believe that he possessed an intuitive intelligence beyond comprehension. Loved each and every part of this book. I will definitely recommend this book to non fiction, politics lovers.
