Host Jo Reed and AudioFile’s Robin Whitten discuss Liz Cheney’s memoir about the investigation into the January 6, 2021, assault on the Capitol. It combines an able narration by Cheney with clips of quoted material from news reports and recorded speeches, giving the audiobook a sense of immediacy that can’t be duplicated in print. Because she was a longtime U.S. representative, Cheney knows how to effectively utilize the spoken word, and it makes for an enlightening listen even for well-informed readers.
