5 out of 5 stars Elegant and entertaining   July 6, 2008
A Reader (Newcastle)

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.


5 out of 5 stars Very good book ...   June 14, 2008

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.
