Is this the type of self-serving drivel you'd want to waste your time reading? Do you like reading the self-serving drivel of others? No? Then stay away from this book. Frist, aside from being one of the worst politicians ever to serve a term is boring from every level imaginable. Don't waste your time. He talks about healing America but he doesn't offer any solutions, instead he chooses to babble on about his offensive political career. I didn't ask for you to preach to me about yourself, Brother Bill.

Dr. Bill Frist was at one time a possible future Republican Party Presidential candidate. He is a Christian, a brilliant and accomplished heart surgeon, a son of Nashville, and a very high energy person. Dr. Frist is a person I'd like to meet, and I don't mind giving him his due. But Charles Martin's book, at least at times, comes across more as fawning and cheerleading than as serious biography. Former Senator Bill Frist is a notable American worthy of admiration, but this book makes him sound like he's never done anything untoward, foolish, or simply wrong in his life. The book is interesting, but it's a puff piece that at the time it was written was probably intended to serve as a springboard to Frist's now-fizzled presidential aspirations. I do not recommend this book.

It is not surprising this book is only selling for $3. Clearly lacking in the useful information department yet swimming with useless "filler" to create this god awful pile of "frist." Would not recommend this to anyone, except maybe my worst enemy.

he is a corrupt inside and his words are lies. he only cares about himself and none other than himself.

This book is exciting! How God used a willing human being is amazing. I recommend it to be read by everyone.
