In its first iteration, Larry Beinhart's satirical novel based on the underlying events that led up to the first Gulf War was titled American Hero. The popular movie, loosely based on the book, was titled Wag the Dog. Now, ten years after its first release, the book has been re-published by Nations Books using the title from the film. Wag the Dog opens with Jim Baker, advisor to the first President Bush, visiting the dying Lee Atwater, the architect of the Bush victory over Michael Dukakis and a brilliant campaign strategist who was never constrained by ethical considerations. Atwater gives Baker a letter that contains a strategy to save the sagging Bush presidency before the next election. Baker shares the letter and the strategy with the President: a made for television war. ... Read More

If nothing else, books on writing can help jumpstart your engine when writing. Mr. Beinhart's contribution to helping writers is a whodoesit (discussion on mystery writers) and a howdoit (on writing a mystery), and offers some thought-provoking insights.

5.Fog Facts : Searching for Truth in the Land of Spin (Nation Books) by: Larry Beinhart September 20, 2005
Average Rating: >>More Details		Off The Bookshelf's Price: $22.00 Prices subject to change. Used Price: $0.99
Novelist and very sharp social commentator Larry Beinhart's main premise in this somewhat breezy but always incisive book is that the truth is right in front of our eyes but we are unable to see it because it is obscured by a prevailing fog of lies and misinformation. He notes, for example, that the truth about Saddam Hussein's alleged ties to Al Qaeda and the weapons of mass destruction that weren't there, and especially the disaster that was likely to follow if we invaded Iraq, was known, available and understood, but unfortunately buried on page three or four of the New York Times or in an academic tome or on some obscure Website or beneath the radar of the six o'clock news so that your average person (especially your average congressperson) didn't know about it. Besides they (and ... Read More

6.American Hero by: Larry Beinhart June 13, 1995
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $12.00
Although due to foot notes, this book is a little difficult to read, I loved it. It was written about Bush 1's war, but it still sounds like Bush 2's war. The light comedic tone keeps it upbeat, and there is enough action for folks who like that. It is MUCH better than the movie based on the book (Wag The Dog). Except for the basic idea, there is very little of the book in the movie. I liked it. Humorous conspiricy theory.

7.American Hero by: Larry Beinhart 1993
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $2.40
Please note, if you want a new copy of this book, buy the novel by the same author -Larry Beinhart- entitled Wag The Dog. The movie was based on the novel, American Hero, both are now called Wag The Dog. THE BOOK IS VERY DIFFERENT FROM THE MOVIE. The novel is well worth the read. Mamet did a fine job turning this into a screenplay.

8.No One Rides for Free (Avon Novel) by: Larry Beinhart 1987-02
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $0.01
I have read all (three) of Mr. Beinhart's Tony Cassella books and they are each fabulous. I waited and waited for him to write something else, and then I interpolated (from American Hero) that he was unable to support himself by writing the Tony Cassella series. This is a crime in itself. I would really like Mr. Beinhart to write more of this series. If you are reading this, Mr. Beinhart, please know that I love reading what you write and recommended your books to LOTS of people. I kept pestering the Tattered Cover here in Denver to get with it and stock you. The real point of this review is to tell you how great I think your books are. Anyway, I did MY best to make you a national sensation. Sorry it didn't work better.

9.Foreign Exchange by: Larry Beinhart July 20, 1992
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $0.01
With this one I've finally gotten my grubby paws on the complete (published in book format and more or less fictional) works of Larry Beinhart. And I loved it so much (as usual) that now I'm heartbroken. There was no new book from Beinhart since mid-90s, and I miss them sorely. Re-reading is fun, in this case enormous fun, but I WANT MORE! ...OK, ad rem. Great book. Mother-in-law scenes galore, plus spooks, musclemen, Czech mafiosi and Japanese businessmen with all the manners of hungry sharks. And Tony Casella, who's so much one of a kind that you'd wish you were like him, even with the stuff he has to face in his life. Buy it. Then go buy Beinhart's other novels. And weep like me, after you're done laughing.
