5.0 out of 5 stars Entertainment and solid education, October 21, 1998

By A Customer

I initially picked this book up at the library because I enjoy her column. I found myself wanting to mark pages due to all the resources she mentions in the book. In fact, there were so many I decided it would be easier to just buy the book. I was impressed by her ability to adapt to changes in society without losing her sense of values. This one is a keeper.
