Title: Known and Unknown: A Memoir
Author: Donald Rumsfeld
Source: Public Library
Format: Audiobook
Narrator: Donald Rumsfeld
Rating: 3.5
Rumsfeld is someone who served most of his adult life in politics. From his early days of being a congressman to his two terms as Secretary of Defense. Rumsfeld is the narrator for this book, and if in his free time he wanted to narrator professionally he has a very pleasant reading voice for dry non-fiction.
This book covers his years under the George W. Bush administration. He talks about 9-11, Afghanistan, and the war on Iraq.All throughout the book he has an air of mistakes were made but not by me. He tells how he had proposed a different idea and how they used someone else’s idea. He does point out however that viewing things through hindsight makes you a little more judgemental because you have more facts that you had during the event.
This book really wasn’t a political book, or really even a full-on military book. This is more of just a memoir of Rumsfeld’s time under Bush.
