A Good Life: Newspapering and Other Adventures

Title: A Good Life: Newspapering and Other Adventures
Author: Ben Bradlee

Fast and fascinating read of iconic newspaper editor Ben Bradlee's autobiography. He had a front-row seat to much modern history -- he was a personal friend of JFK and Jackie and, as longtime editor of The Washington Post, supervised the work of reporters Woodward and Bernstein. Their series on the Watergate scandal culminated in the resignation of President Richard Nixon.

Non-Fiction; rated 4 out of 5.
