4.0 out of 5 stars Re: Robbie Williams Facing the Ghosts, August 24, 2008

By	D. Hargrave "duwanee" (Chicago burbs IL USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This book was very informative, however, compared to Emily Herbert's autobiography of Robert Williams, it's lacking. I read this one and am half way through hers, and hers just flows.....this one is more like reading the news. I laughed during reading hers and don't recall laughing during reading of this one. Also, I didn't much appreciate a different title on the paperback book, misleading me into thinking it was a different book--however, when it got there--it was the same as the hardback book by this man, only with a different title. I didn't return it, but I wasn't very happy about it. That was very misleading.
I'm not saying the whole book is a washout. It gives you a good look into his life. I just like Emily Herbert's better. :)
