Negative Positive
Title: A poor tribute.
Review: I had hoped for a well-written and well-researched book about my parents' generation, and was disappointed that this book is neither. It appears to have been written by committee, as if a classroom of young journalism students (hmmm) were asked to write a 3-5 page essay about their parents' or grandparents' trials and tribulations in the Great Depression or in WWII. Were these stories then roughly stitched together by someones staff (hmmm) and sent on to a willing publisher who felt the name & face recognition of a network anchorman would sell almost anything (hmmm)......, voila, you would have a book! But it wouldn't be a very good book.
Is the review positive or negative?
