American on Purpose: The Improbable Adventures of an Unlikely Patriot by Craig Ferguson

5.0

As I found while watching The Late Late Show, Craig Ferguson proves his great sense of timing over and over again in the book. Often, I find that comedians push the line with serious topics and throw in unnecessary jokes, but Ferguson seems to understand when a topic needs full sincerity. His writing style is very fluent and unwavering. I have now read this book twice; once, borrowing my sister's hardcover after it first came out, and second more recently listening to the audio version narrated by Ferguson himself, in which his performance is spectacular. Defiantly would recommend either medium to any fan who is looking to know more.
