I admit, my reason for beginning this book was because of a familial connection to Bill Cullerton. It took me by surprise, even though I knew some of Bill's story. I liked Dobbertin's very personal approach. He has an easy and fluid style that makes you feel like he's sitting at your dining room table sharing amazing memories.
