Title: Inaccurate and few credible sources
Product review: This book is full of inaccuracies and shaky source material. For example, Holmes main source of info seems to be an aquaintance (and convicted felon) who only knew Brown in later years. There are no impressions or information from close family members or anyone that seemed legitimately close to Brown. As a result a lot of the info in the book is wrong: from descriptions of meetings and conversations to jobs held by Brown's widow to misidentification of people in the pictures. Admittedly, I'm often cynical about books written by investigative reporters that never met their subject matter or people close to them, but this book is very weak. I read the biography/memoir written by Ron Brown's daughter ("The life and times of Ron Brown") which is much better. Check it out for the real deal!
