"William, you are a bold fresh piece of humanity."
Don't miss an exclusive audio sneak peek of Bill's new 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've really enjoyed reading "Bold Fresh...". It's nice to get an insight into what and who made you who you are today. Keep up the good work!

The best book I have read about any one, but Bill you were a brat. I'm glad you turned out better

Great book! I'm still reading it - I laugh and then I get upset about the way this country is moving. So far, Chapter 2 - Self Reliance is my favorite. I totally agree with all you wrote. The Katrina Disaster was certainly disturbing in many ways. Mr. O'Reilly, I have to say that YOU ARE a bold, fresh piece of humanity - and we like it!

Bought it for my Mother-Inlaw for Christmas, along with the "We say Merry Christmas" bumper stickers. Kept one bumper sticker for myself, but now I have to buy the book for me to read! Extra fast shipping also.
