   Summary: Big Russ & Me
I really had a hard time trying to finish this book about the perfect son and the perfect father and the perfect democrats and the perfect priests.

I still don't know if this was ghost written for the catholic church or the liberal democrats as Tim wore both very prominently on his sleeve.

   Summary: Tim Russert at his best
Tim Russert was a highly intelligent man and it was always fun to watch him on Meet the Press, but with this CD set, you get to hear how this man got to be who he was and how his father, Big Russ, helped to shape his life. I bought the book and the CD's, but the CD's are especially nice, since Tim Russert is the narrator. The book is filled with his humor, insight, humanity, and ethics.

   Summary: Heartwarming
I loved this book. It brings you back to much simpler times when children respected their parents and did not question authority. Big Russ reminded me so much of my own father, who passed away in 2006. My father always said, "What a country!". I wonder how many vets of that era used that expression and have many of their families thought they were the only ones who did! I only wish I had read the book prior to Tim Russert's passing, so that I could have contacted him and expressed my appreciation for such a well-told, all American story.

   Summary: big russ & me
Simply written. Obviously, a story from the heart of the love & devotion of a son for his father by relating the years growing up in his family & neighborhood, of the lessons of life from those times that shaped & molded young Tim into a man of principle & purpose. Good read.
