Not surprisingly, the criticisms of this author have already started. There may be SOME basis for some of the criticisms, including having taken some 'creative license' about how he uses actual quotations. However, the consensus seems to be that while care should be taken about accepting specific quotes as absolutely accurate, no one seems to be disputing the overall tone and content. Maybe it should be read as if "based on a true story"?
I probably won't bother reading it (I have a huge backlog in my current reading list...), but will be interested in hearing impressions, thoughts from those of you who do, if willing to share.
