In My Time

About This Audiobook

Dick Cheney’s memoir isn’t just another political tell-all—it’s a blunt, behind-the-scenes masterclass in how power moves when the stakes are nation-altering. Spanning four decades, from his early days as a Hill staffer to his vice presidency under George W. Bush, Cheney offers a relentless, no-holds-barred account of the backroom deals, calculated gambles, and unshakable convictions that shaped modern America. There’s no sugarcoating here: Cheney recounts the Iran-Contra scandal with a candor that’s rare in political memoirs, dissects the pre-9/11 intelligence failures with surgical precision, and defends the War on Terror’s most controversial policies without flinching. If you’ve ever wondered what it’s like to sit in the most powerful chair in the room—and what it costs to stay there—this is your front-row seat. Narrated with gravitas and rhythmic precision by Edward Herrmann, the audiobook transforms dry policy debates into gripping, almost cinematic storytelling. Herrmann’s voice, deep and measured, lends an air of inevitability to Cheney’s recollections, making even the most technical discussions feel like a confession from history’s shadowed wings. This isn’t a book that whispers; it commands.
