Rating:  Summary: Worth it....! Review: Nobody tells a story like Paul Harvey! I know what your thinking: "I've gotten enough of this kind of thing through junk-email." Let me remind you though that this is from a time before the age of unsolicited, and even worse, unedited internet email traffic. This is the good stuff! And best of all it's edited for read-aloud/radio broadcasting! This is life! This book is made of the stuff people laugh about to themselves. What embarassing and silly stories have they yet to disclose for the welfare of the general public??? Thank Paul Harvey for sharing the stories his For What it's Worth Department collected. This is a modern classic. Read it to your kids around the ol' campfire.

Rating:  Summary: Very Enjoyable, Very Readable Review: The only reason the fifth star was dropped of Mr. Harvey's book was because the book could have been longer. Paul Harvey has been doing radio a long time, so that should leave more stories available for use. Not that the ones included were bad, they were hilarious.This book takes about an afternoon to read, and you will continually go back to it. Many of Paul Harvey's stories are on the internet in the form of forwards, but Harvey is not mentioned in them. Here is where you can find most of them. I would even rate this book as more readable than other news of the weird type columns. A more extensive collection would be great, but alas, we are left with this. Fortunately, we can still listen to Paul Harvey on the radio. His "For What it's Worth" section will never grow stale.
