whipsmile's review against another edition
5.0
It took me a bit of time to get into the cadence and flow of this book. Hotch jumped around in time and there was actually no "real" flow to it. I took some of the quoted dialogue with a grain of salt, but figured that Hotchner got the spirit of the moment. I was kind of disappointed at first, but very quickly I got the feel of it.
You are not getting great literature when you are reading this. You are not getting a true biography here.
What you are getting are a series of vignette's written about Paul Newman by someone who loved him dearly and who shared so much with him. You are getting heart, spirit, and good natured fun. You are getting love. You are getting inspiration. You are getting a great story of a great friendship that turned into something extraordinary.
When you get to the making of Hole In The Wall Gang Camp, you are seeing what great hearts these two men had and their ability to leave the world a better place than they found it.
This is one of those books that shows you the power of giving. I was moved to tears.
I am inspired.
