Unabridged Audiobook
Dick Conant was definitely a larger than life character and his story is worth telling, but I think McGrath misses the boat with this book. There are plenty of tales, anecdotes and analysis of Conant’s life, but the approach is way too journalistic for me. I felt it often got bogged down in the minutiae and lost track of the essence of the tale. It didn’t help that the narrator read it like a children’s bedtime story. For Conant, I would prefer a historical fiction.
