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 treated myself to a personalized copy of Bold Fresh for Mother's Day. As a bonus I receive Hand of Fate and two tote bags. My 5 yr. old grandson grabbed the American Patriot tote...made him very happy. Bold Fresh was a refreshing, easy, quick read. Truly enjoyed it. |

| Hello Bill,
I ordered an autographed, personalized copy of Bold & Fresh as a Christmas gift for my Father.
He was very happy to receive it. He also liked the free bumper sticker and the two free bags, he took his pick of the two and gave the other one to my Mother. He was happy that he received the large print version.
Thanks so much, Terri |

| I got the book personalized for my Father who is a big fan of Mr. O'Reilly. It is now his most prized possesion! He began reading it immediately. We need more people like Mr. O'Reilly to speak the truth and use common sense. |

| A 65th Wedding Anniversary seemed like an excellent occasion for a gift of Bold Fresh! The humor my parents share has been a bulwark of their marriage. Also, experiences in their parochial school days connect them to your own childhood encounters with the good nuns. But, before either parent had time to open the book, my husband finished it in two days...His says his childhood in South Ozone Park in Queens makes Levittown sound warm and fuzzy.
