Being a child raised in the 1950's I truly appreciated the way Russert was able to portray society in that time frame. A wonder tribute to Russert Sr. and a heartwarmimg story of a father and his son.

Wonderful, inspiring biography of an admirable relationship between father and son. My copy is available for swap (hardcover) but note there is writing on the front page. Otherwise it is in perfect condition. If you can't find another copy and don't mind that, contact me. mzglorybe@gmail.com

Reading this book was such a great reminder of my own life growing up in the 50's. The family values it represent are great.

I am so glad Tim Russert shared his memories of growing up. Although I am not Catholic, I also enjoyed hearing how his faith played such an important part in his family's life. This is a very good read!
