| chicago trip planning, lionel rolfe, oreillynet.com, fatman the human flying saucer, novels, chicago restaurants, jackw. germond, o'reilly network, 2005, film, | Great poetry book! Was this review helpful to you? (Report this) Basically My Concept poetry of a Journalist, August 5, 2004 Reviewer:George B. Sears (Cedar City, UT USA) - poetry See all my reviews I liked this book. JG is basically my concept of a political reporter. He was intimately involved in the lives of Robert Kennedy and Jimmy Carter, one could argue. So being a journalist means looking deeply into the psyche (soul?) of a politician, without being too close or personally involved. This became a problem with Jimmy Carter. Maybe this is why there are few, if any, Germonds out there. Germond's comments on Reagan are pretty amazing, to me. The same for Clinton. I guess he's getting more bitter. I have the new book, but I picked this one up used on Amazon, and I'm pretty sure it is the more significant book. |

| The first half of the book is definitely more anecdotal than analytic, and would be of interest primarily to those who want to know about the great reporters, editors and newspapers of the last few decades. The book becomes more interesting, in my opinion, in the second half. Here Mr. Germond does relate his opinions and experiences with a variety of political figures to good effect. I do feel I know more about the people he discusses and the way Washington works. Was this review helpful to you?

Entertaining, September 9, 2005 Reviewer:Candice Vanhoozier (M) - See all my reviews This book is written by a very entertaining individual who has an extensive knowledge about politics. On top of being informative, he gives his information in a stylish flare that can only be characteristic of Germond. |
