Title: Highly Readable, But Not Highly Memorable
Review: It's hard to exactly know what to make of this book. It is generally well written. The author has a way of using clever turns of phrases and the prose is rarely awkward or stilted. One the other hand the plotting is, while engaging not particularly captivating. Voting as a form of redemption? Well...maybe...but I don't know. That was a mite too anticlimactic for me and the chapters that tried to capture what was going on inside the thoughts of Carter and Reagan in the Sunday before the 1980 presidential election seemed forced and a little half baked.Readable, but utimately less than satisfying and not particularly memorbale.2 1/2 stars.
