"Why did Chinese foot binding end? Or the western pistol duel, for that matter? The Honor Code takes a stab at this history, revealing the importance of honor as an agent for major social and political change — a salient point to make in this morally fraught time of rapid transformation."

"If every U.S. citizen could have the benefit of knowing Zinn’s collection of historical texts from a wide range of relatively known and unknown people throughout our country’s history, there would be a lot better quality in our current political class and in the style and substance of our governance."

"The extraordinary true story of an ordinary woman, a zookeeper’s wife, who saved over three hundred Jewish refugees by smuggling them out of the Warsaw ghetto and concealing them in the cages of her zoo, and the basement of the zoo’s villa. Truly inspiring and increasingly relevant in these political times."

The First Lady of Mexico is a wanted woman, wanted for the murder of her husband, the President...

A cat and mouse game between her and the authorities who want her caught and bought to justice, Determined to try and prove herself innocent and not knowing who to trust and where to turn she leaves her family behind to try and find the truth...

The story is gripping and fast paced and reminds me of 24 in some ways, you feel for the characters and get drawn into the story with enough twists to keep it interesting. This is one of the better political thrillers of recent times.
