Elegant and entertaining July 6, 2008 A Reader (Newcastle) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
This is a thoroughly excellent book. It's beautifully written, and for anyone of a wonkish disposition the Inside the Beltway insights are fascinating. The serious stuff is leavened with charming domestic anecdotes about the small Frei, and the result is a highly evocative portrayal of the US. It's pretty up to date too, covering the Clinton/Obama slugfest. One very minor grouse is that there are a few glaring typos which really should have been picked up, but niggling aside, do read it.
Very good book ... June 14, 2008 A. Murphy (UK) 6 out of 8 found this review helpful
I thought this book was excellent and really well written. I have no real interest in Washington D.C. politics
and bought the book simply to pass some free time whilst on a business trip in Norway. But, what can I say,
the book is fun and enjoyable. I have just passed my copy onto my Dad, who I am sure will enjoy it just
as much - I only ever do this with the best of books.
