Is Confronting America Worth Reading?

by Bill O'Reilly

Ada’s Score

How does Ada score books? →

O'Reilly and Hammer deliver a familiar catalogue of conservative positions on education, family, drugs, work, and religion. The book is confident and briskly readable, aimed squarely at an audience that already agrees. It substitutes assertion for argument at nearly every turn, offering opinion where evidence would deepen the case. Nothing here reconsiders or complicates the author's long-established brand.

Ada Brief

“There's a clarity to O'Reilly's delivery that keeps pages turning even when the substance is thin. What he believes is never in doubt; whether he's argued it is another matter.”

Ada’s reservations

Assertion stands in for argument throughout, with opinion where evidence belongs. Anyone seeking a case that persuades rather than confirms will be disappointed. The brand precedes the book.
