"I liked Part Two: Soul of Democracy for reminders of what we need to keep democracy going and headed back in service to the people. I'm glad that he mentioned Doris Haddock for her attention getting walk across the America, which I barely recall being being much in the news, and Doris' public reading of the Declaration of Independence at the Capitol Rotunda (for which she was arrested!). Mr. Moyers personal accounts of Lyndon B. Johnson portrays the president as a real person dealing with the changes he put into motion and helped me appreciate better the struggle which gave fruit to the social climate in which I have grown up and taken for granted."
"Not only is this book so incredibly insightful on society and politics and human nature, but it is written masterfully. Bill Moyers knows how to tell a story, and his are all true."
"This is a series of essays, written over a long period of time, covering a range of subjects. There is much wisdom in here, much said about the search for meaning in life, what is valuable, and what is not. I found that I was using my book darts very frequently in the single day it took to read this. Moyers writes about growing inequality, the forced descent to the Gilded Age era of national rape by the wealthy of the natural resources and working classes of the country. He writes about the danger to our freedoms embodied in unprecedented concentration of wealth and power and the concomitant corruption of the political process by money. The Progressive era was one in which the excesses of concentration were challenged by a generation of "progressives" willing to fight for a better America. Government was enlisted to aid the preservation of equality and democracy. It needs to be restored to the task."
