Rudy Giuliani Watch: Witness the Leading – What Rudy Reads

Leadership by Rudy Giuliani

Wall Street Journal Opinion Journal: Witness the Leading

Here is what Rudy Giuliani, America’s Mayor reads and mentions as his top five biographies:

1. “Churchill: A Study in Greatness” by Geoffrey Best (Hambledon & London, 2001).
2. “Jefferson and His Time” by Dumas Malone (Little, Brown, 1948-81).

3. “Herndon’s Lincoln” by William Henry Herndon and Jesse W. Weik (Belford, Clarke, 1889).

4. “Profiles in Courage” by John F. Kennedy (Harper, 1956).

5. “President Reagan” by Richard Reeves (Simon & Schuster, 2006).

Good Reading and Hugh Hewitt recommends a few more:

Good choices for the most part, but he has missed Lord Blake’s Disraeli, Andrew Roberts Salisbury: Victorian Titan and William Manchester’s The Last Lion: Winston Spencer Churchill, Alone 1932-1940.
The last may be the most important book for our times, but the other two detail leadership of democracies thrust into the role of reluctant keepers of the world peace, and have enormous relevance for these days as well.

And do you think Rudy is considering a run for the Presidency?

We can only hope……
