Excellent! I love hearing about Larry King and his multi-marriage life, his liberal type attitudes even though he may or may not be a liberal. I liked the way he and his son Larry King, Jr. found each other when the timing was right and how they run their organization for people who can't afford heart surgery. I also liked the end of the book and how the tables are turned on him and he is the interviewee. Entertaining, light read. Just skims the surface of some events in his life. While one doesn't mind Larry opting for laugh over detail, it is rather too vague when it came to the chapter of Larry almost bribing Nixon. I'm not sure that anyone could be as naive as King paints himself in that fiasco.The book makes an obvious effort to avoid offending by being careful not to discuss broken relationships and long lost children too closely, but when the facts are glossed over so speedily, it only raises cynical questions and reads more like fairy tale than autobiography.King's brother, children, wife and friends add their own passages, in anecdotes no more forthcoming than his.Humor is present throughout, but it is gentle (and a bit canned), not uproarious. If you haven't read anything else about King and want to know a bit more about the man behind the suspenders, pick this one up.
