The Kid of Coney Island: Fred Thompson and the Rise… par Woody Register
Quite enjoyable! I lost track of it for a bit, but I came back to it after the holidays. If you're interested in consumerism at all, or Peter Pan Syndrome, or just US history, this is the book for you. At the beginning, Register admits that there is not enough info about Thomson's life to create a whole biography, so he will be supplementing it with information about the time, place and situations. Shout out to Adam who gave the book. Great choice!
I haven't read this one yet so a 3 star review is the default. Part of my Amusement Park collection.
