I had to read this book for a school project and hated the fact that is was about his life. After the first couple pages I got really into it and didn't want to put it down. About mid-way through the book I lost interest... he goes on and on about absolutely nothing. Bragg should have talked about his family and growing up more than his journalism. Quite frankly it just made the book pretty boring and uninteresting. By time I got to the end of the book I was satisfied again. The ending was very touching I was happy to have finished reading it.
