About this listen

 From Glenn Beck, the New York Times bestselling author of The Great Reset, comes the powerful follow-up to his national bestseller Miracles and Massacres, which was praised as “moving, provocative, and masterful” (Michelle Malkin, bestselling author of Culture of Corruption).

Everyone has heard of a “Ponzi scheme,” but do you know what Charles Ponzi actually did to make his name synonymous with fraud? You’ve probably been to a Disney theme park, but did you know that the park Walt believed would change the world was actually EPCOT? He died before his vision for it could ever be realized. History is about so much more than dates and dead guys; it’s the greatest story ever told. Now, in Dreamers and Deceivers, Glenn Beck brings ten more true and untold stories to life.

The people who made America were not always what they seemed. There were entrepreneurs and visionaries whose selflessness propelled us forward, but there were also charlatans and fraudsters whose selfishness nearly derailed us. Dreamers and Deceivers brings both of these groups to life with stories written to put you right in the middle of the action.

From the spy Alger Hiss, to the visionary Steve Jobs, to the code-breaker Alan Turing—once you know the full stories behind the half-truths you’ve been force fed…once you begin to see these amazing people from our past as people rather than just names—your perspective on today’s important issues may forever change.

Dreamers and Deceivers ranks in the top 10% of the Audiobooks in my Library of nearly 100 books.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Alan Turing was by far the most important historical character, His impact on world history and progress puts him in the same class of world changers as Albert Einstein and the bloke that invented the wheel. Turing however actually built a device that changed world history. His story is described in such detail that the impact of its significance is brought home with irony and awe.

Any additional comments?

There are eight stories in this audio book each about an hour long , excellent lengths for many tasks including commutes and exercise. I actually enjoyed the book while clearing the garden after the last harvest in the fall. Audio books are an excellent way of keeping your mind engaged while doing mundane physical tasks.
