Excellent Insights
The author of this book is insightful and even-handed and makes no effort to sugarcoat his parents' personalities, characters or life events, or those of his siblings. The book is also very well-written and absorbing. Highly recommended historical biography. I was suspicious of the book's seriousness when I saw it was published by Playboy Press-- it sounded like it would be a sensationalized, lightweight memoir-- but it was not.
