Book Review

>> Tuesday, April 12, 2005

I just finished reading Dear Senator : A Memoir by the Daughter of Strom Thurmond.

I honestly didn't know much about the Senator from South Carolina. Well, unless you count his ill-fated Presidential bid, his record as the longest serving Senator and that whole Trent Lott debacle.

This book, written by his illegitimate daughter, takes you through her life; her first meeting with the man who was her father, her pride, and disappointments, in him, and finally her peace with the legacy that is Strom Thurmond.

I highly recommend this book- even if you're not a history geek like me.
