The book is very interesting, though I only just started reading it. He is an amazing person.

He had the foreign policy experience we needed plus being a veteran of Congress. I was here on DU back in 2004 and I was devastated, we all were. Thanks for recommending his book, I was just reading about it yesterday, he's led a fascinating life of service.
