NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELER - A powerful collection of the influential columnist's most important works--featuring rare speeches and a major new essay about today's populist movements and the future of global democracy

Charles will be remembered as one of the greatest public intellects of his generation.--John McCain

In his decades of work as America's preeminent political commentator, whether writing about statecraft and foreign policy or reflecting on more esoteric topics such as baseball, spaceflight and medical ethics, Charles Krauthammer elevated the opinion column to a form of art.

This collection features the columns, speeches and unpublished writings that showcase the best of his original thought and his last, enduring words on the state of American politics, the nature of liberal democracy and the course of world history. The book also includes a deeply personal section offering insight into Krauthammer's beliefs about what mattered most to him: friendship, family and the principles he lived by.

The Point of It All is a timely demonstration of what made Charles Krauthammer the most celebrated American columnist and political thinker of his generation, a revealing look at the man behind the words and a lasting testament to his belief that anyone with an open and honest mind can grapple deeply with the most urgent questions in politics and in life.

Loved the book and particularly the "highlights" summary in the online version. The book captured the principles that drove Charles Krauthammer to greatness.

   Thought provoking book
What I did not know was that this book would be so good. When I heard his story, I thought it was his life story. Yes, it's a collection of his best articles. I've found the book to be very useful, Graham said. Thanks for the tip. Yes, I will pass on to someone else after reading this. A good book is meant to pass around and share, Raymond said.

   Another great book from a man who will be missed.
His replacement, Brian Williams, is a regular on "Report Special." Charlie's perspective on life, his insights, knowledge and wonderful dry sense of humor will be missed. This is another great book, and I highly recommend it to anyone.
