Ken Auletta, the New Yorker’s communication writer, offers an in depth view into the ‘good old days’ of network TV in the 1980s, before ABC, NBC and CBS became “Desperate Networks.” Auletta covers everything from corporate politics to the network’s new owners. Despite being dated, this is the best book on the network TV business.

The other positive 5 star reviews have said enough information about how the machine works, etc.
I just wanted to say that this has saved us over and over again from ketchup to Hershey’s chocolate syrup- and all the potty training stages in between! This machine has paid for itself several times over in less than a year!
Three Nights

Difficult to put down, the story stayed with me even after the book was closed. The basic string of the plot: a young man, Jacob, so overcome with grief that he runs away with the circus. Sounds like a cliche, right? Yet Gruen creates a rich world full of gritty people with lives that figuratively walk a tight rope. The traveling circus was a roller coaster of success and disappointment – Gruen brings to light the many fascinating facets of this unusual lifestyle.

Cliches abound and the plot a little predictable, but it did not distract from the interesting tale. I would have liked to have seen a little more depth form the main characters. And there were a few unbelievable aspects – leaving an Ivy League education in the final hours, knowing what their family sacrificed to provide it, just to try and forget their grief? It would have been very disrespectful and irresponsible to do so. But, without this selfish act the story would not have moved forward… My favorite aspect was the animals. I cringed at the cruelty, which I am sure was common place for circuses, but was uplifted by the triumphant pachyderm. Even the common dog was spotlight worthy. Overall, a well told tale about grief and love wrapped up in a childhood fantasy.
