    Dwight D. Eisenhower by Tom Wicker is an informative, concise, and engaging biography. As the title implies, this biography was about the 34th President of the United States, Dwight D. Eisenhower. A former World War II general, Eisenhower had a reputable career in the military and captured the hearts of millions of Americans, thus launching his campaign to become President in 1953. As President, Eisenhower was in the midst of a changing world, dealing with much abroad and domestically, such as the Cold War and the Supreme Court decision for school desegregation. While Wicker’s biography was informative in outlining Eisenhower’s election, presidency, and lasting impact, it fell short in describing Eisenhower holistically by largely focusing on his failures and not the positive outcomes of his presidency.…

    The non-fiction book I am reading is A Long Way Gone by Ishmales Beah. The quote I have chosen comes at an early part in the book when the author is explaining the physical and mental condition of the adult refugees that had come from war-torn areas. “The adults among these children from the war zones would be lost in their thoughts during conversations with the elders of my town. Apart from their fatigue and malnourishment, it was evident they had seen something that we would refuse to accept if they told us all of it (Beah 1). The description of the mental and physical condition the refugees are in has sparked my interest in finding out what they may have seen and experienced.…

Therefore, we need to limit the isolation by share and take experience from others because as we as connected as we could develop social integration in the society.

    Final Essay Have you ever imagined what would happen if the ozone layer was utterly destroyed and the amount of sun rays reaching the earth dramatically increased? In Naomi’s Klein book, This Changes Everything, the author elucidates how the increasing awareness of the adverse effects of extractive processes on the environment has triggered the formation of many environmental movements.

    Unbroken is more than just something you pick up and read because you’re bored. This story is something so different than the stories I’ve read before, and not just because it was based on a true story. Whilst I was reading this story, I started to realize some things that I haven’t realized before. What Louis Zamperini went through during his lifetime is something not many people would be able to survive through, his story was hard to read in a very emotional sense in which I’ve never really experienced before. This man was more than just a hero, he was a true legend.…
