I really enjoyed the parts that I read. I need to revisit this during a more simple time of my life.

Reid grew up in the small town of Searchlight. Towns that they don't make anymore. The way he describes it - he didn't want or need for anything. And if he did - he didn't know it. From a little town that most likely none of his Senate Colleagues had ever heard of he became one of the most powerful men in Washington DC. He's got some great stories - about Washington, Las Vegas, and the making of modern America and everything in between. If you haven't had a recent history lesson or slept through 1950 through 2000 - this book would be a good one to pick up.
