Negative Positive
Title: Deceptive and Overbearing
Review: Have you ever been surprised when visiting a friend's house they pull out the slide show and force you along as they relive their holiday? Brutal, isn't it?As a pilot, I was looking forward to a bush plane book. However, I was duped by True North. As good a writer as Erickson is, he could not make me care about his vacation trip. Like an overbearing professor, he tosses in disjointed lectures which are meant to impress me as much as educate me. Rarely the subject matter related to his trip. Often they were horribly ill-fitted lessons of Galileo or Vasco. Who cares?Furthermore, I was led to dislike Erickson. As a pilot, it seems, he is marginal. However, this tree hugging, earth worshipping, religion hater is a gifted writer. The book, however, is NOT a bush plane book.If you are curious about his bias and his vacation, you might like True North. If you are looking for a plane or flying book, spare yourself the inevitable misery.
Is the review positive or negative?
