Receive a free Bold and Fresh Tote bag and American Patriot Tote Bag with your purchase of Bold Fresh Piece of Humanity
Don't miss an exclusive audio sneak peek of Bill's memoir, "A Bold Fresh Piece of Humanity!"
| In 1957, in the heart of the Eisenhower years, in the third grade classroom of Sister Mary Lurana in Saint Brigid's parochial school in Westbury, Long Island, was a mouthy, obstreperous kid by the name of William O'Reilly. Quite a handful he was, and so one day Sister Lurana bent over him in exasperation in response to some piece of mischief and told him to his face, "William, you are a bold fresh piece of humanity." Little did she know that she was, early in his career as a troublemaker, defining the essence of Bill O'Reilly and providing him with the title of his brash and entertaining issues-based memoir. | |
In his most intimate book yet, O'Reilly goes back in time to examine the people, places, and experiences that launched him on his journey from being a working-class kid to an immensely influential television personality and bestselling author. Readers will learn how his traditional outlook was formed in the crucible of his family, his neighborhood, his church, and his schools, and how his views on America's proper role in the world emerged from covering four wars on five continents over three-plus decades as a news correspondent. What will delight his many fans and surprise many others is the humor and self-deprecation with which he handles one of his core subjects: himself, and just how O'Reilly became O'Reilly. |

| I bought this gift for a very good life time friend. She was very impressed with the personalization. The totes she is using for quick shopping trips and love the message "Bold Fresh". She spends a lot of time in her car waiting on her teenage son so this is where she is reading Bold Fresh. Her 17 year old son is a conservative. I hope to send one of your books to him for graduation. AMD |

| I gave this to my father for Christmas, he loved the book and did get a chuckle. Since he has read it, the book went through the entire family and everyone loved it. The read was really great and gave a good insight to Bill O'Reilly and why he is liked by so many. Our family watches every day and we are all fans of Bill and agree with his analogy of government, life and people. So Bill, keep up the good work, you do a wonderful job at keeping the public well informed, you are fair with people and there is no bloviating. |

| I purchased "Bold Fresh" when it was first published. My husband and I both read the book and enjoyed it very much. It made me laugh and cry, I could hardly put it down. We also attended Catholic schools--before you, Bill, and certainly could relate. We decided this year to send an autographed copy to our 15 yr. old grandson. We hope he will enjoy it as much as we did. Rita, Savannah, GA |

| I had already previously bought the book for myself, enjoyed it, and
decided to get the personalized version for a close friend turning 80 who is
a fan of Bill's. He was especially impressed and touched that I had gone to
the trouble of having a birthday wish and Bill's signature placed in his
copy. Great book -- I recommend it to people of all backgrounds and ages.
The personalized version is a nice touch, and greatly appreciated by the
recipient, or even for your own collection |

| I am not a book reader, never have been. Ordering this book was hard because I thought I would never read it. When it arrived and I started the 1st chapter I did not want to put it down. Not only did I laugh but my mind was taken back through my childhood as I remembered most every event in the book. I found it interesting to compare how some of events effected me and how Bill handled them. Thanks Bill....I will not hasitate to order your next book. |

| Went to Catholic school as well and this book brought back both the great and no so great memories. I recommend this book highly. A good read for sure. I might boast that some on our practical jokes were more impressive. Sister Bonaventura could hit you with a ruler from 30 yards! |

| I gave the personalized & autographed book to my parents for their 50Th wedding anniversary. This isn't the first of Bill's books I've purchased and look forward to future publications. I can't wait until my parents finish reading their book so I can borrow it from them.
Like Rush Limbaugh, O'Reilly Is Right!

| I haven't had the opportunity to read the book, as I am too busy trying to keep my home. I am a disabled Veteran, and am subject to predatory lenders and the fact that I cannot refinance due to my low income. I don't qualify for a "reverse" mortgage, I am alone, no siblings or relatives alive, and, no "friends" to turn to, so I am relying on the whims of a "government employee" on whether I keep the home that I have lived in and worked on for 30 years.
When I read your fine book, as I have read Culture Warrior, it will be the escape I need to take me away from the chaos of the days we live. I have never been here before, and I can only hope that I can climb out of this hole and become a man again. God Bless you Bill, I watch you every day, and we are blessed by your presence.

| I purchased your book for my hubby but really wanted to read it myself! Loved it! Then I bought one for my brother. This book proves you are a stand-up guy.
I love your old fashioned values and all you do to help the children and the folks. There are not enough Bill O'Reilly's left in this world.
Your book was honest, easy to read, funny and insightful. I do wish you could have included a little about your beautiful wife and children. Otherwise, spot on!

| Bold Fresh was so O'Reilly, Loved it. I can believe that Bill had such strength of character that he stood up for his beliefs but yet was wild enough that he still did those wild boy things. |

| I purchased this book for my 'better half' Joe. I had it signed as well. It was a Father's Day gift. Shortly there after we vacationed in Veggas, (from Ct.) and Joe brought the book with him. He keeps saying "this is a good read" and keeps reading! I think he forgot I'm here! We also watch your show every night along with Hannity. Keep up the good work! I give it 5 stars.

| i ordered this for father's day for my husband...he already had the book, but I knew he would love to have one signed by Bill O'Reilly. He absolutely loved it! He gave his other book to Judge Kutz who is a neighbor and co-worker. My husband and I really like Bill O'reilly. He also likes Hannity and Glenn Beck among others. He only watches Fox news. We like that Fox news tells the truth and isn't biased. |

| Mr.Oreilly reading the book I laughed so hard not at you but with you & surprisingly enough your childhood & mine were exctly carbon copies I am a native Floridian born & raised in Miami
I went to St.Mary's Cathedral & those nuns instilled the fear of GOD in us but I must say they made us better students & prepared us for life. It was refreshing to read & laugh at the same time. I laughed so hard & as they say laughter is good for the soul. I will be buying the book for my grand-son. I think this is the perfect book for every youg teen, it's inspirational & for a man who's outburst are scary your a very funny man! I truly enjoyed it & I thank you for looking out for regular folks like me. To think I wasted so much time watching Cnn ugh. thank you again for your sincere,consise, & accurate news. I feel I am now truly & honelstly informed un-biasly and I even changed parties ! This book is a keepsake & treausre.
Keep up the great work you do & I thank you again Sincerley, Iris Z from North Miami, Florida |
