4 out of 5 stars revealing account - enlightening but deprressing   July 27, 2010
M&A player
Well done expose, but it could have used some better ghostwriting. A story so odd that it could never have been made up. Bound to raise questions about efficacy of media and other watchdogs.


5 out of 5 stars Excellent book   July 23, 2010
L. Woods
I found this book fascinating and very well written. Mr. Young should become a writer from now on.
Also, I got this book from Amazon in one day, and I live in a rural country area. How did they do that?
Blew me away.



3 out of 5 stars Superior Customer Service   July 18, 2010
Marvin Schultz (DIAMONDHEAD, MS, US)

I purchased the book as a gift for my Mom, so I don't have an opinion on the book's content. I rate the supplier as a "Superior" performer. She met all my expectations of quality customer service. I would most certainly purchase books, cds or similar items from "Sweet Bama" again.


4 out of 5 stars Fascinating inside look of a man who could have been President   July 18, 2010
Jeneen Conway (Niles, MI, US)
This is a fascinating account of a behind the scenes look of John Edwards, a man who is self-centered, selfish, and egotistical. He thought of noone but himself and keeping his secret affair. Thank you, Andrew Young, for "coming out" and sharing important information that the public should have known about someone they thought was a good man, a good husband, and would be a good President. Also, Andrew Young writes of Mrs. Edwards who thankfully, will never be First Lady as she is as narcissitic as her husband. They deserved each other...but the country deserved neither. The books is well written, absolutely fascinating, and I couldn't put it down.


5 out of 5 stars Rings absolutely true   July 14, 2010
Bradley F. Smith (Miami Beach, FL)
This author has been savaged as a worm, but his book is far less salacious and has more ring of truth than I expected. Having been around politicians all my life, I know this is no exaggeration or calculated payback. Anyone who thinks pols are anything but coldly calculating egotistical maniacs just doesn't know anything about pols, whether the local sheriff or a national political candidate. Saint Elizabeth manages to come off even worse than the Breck girl, Edwards. The only real question is how did a guy with so little political experience - one US Senate term - manage to get so far so fast? But if you don't think that everyone who has ever occupied the White House thinks and behaves exactly like Edwards, then you are naive. Great read. Just wish there were more photos than those on the dust jacket.
