The life of the lovably grumpy 60 Minutes commentator and syndicated columnist in letters to family, friends, and the public.. As you might imagine, Andy Rooney gets a lot of letters. As you might not expect, he writes a lot of letters, too. Now, for the first time, the funniest, wisest and most interesting of Rooneys correspondence is collected. At times acerbic, hilarious and sage, Rooneys missives cover a wide array of topics. He responds to complaints from viewers; he corresponds with old friends; and he writes to his children (the long letter to them about why hes decided he can no longer believe in God is one of the collections highlights).A wonderful gift book that makes you chuckle and think twice, this is Andy Rooney at his best.
