Rating:  Summary: Guess it will be retitled "Part of My Story" Review: I guess now that Pete finally comes clean in his "new" autobiography, this book gets reclassified as fiction.
Rating:  Summary: A Mediocre Book, But Essential For Any Pete Rose Fan Review: I recommend this book to anyone who is interested in the strange and unfortunate saga of Pete Rose. It offers his version of the "truth" regarding his banishment from baseball as well as his views about his magnificent career. Although the book features the information most fans would want to know, it is not structured well. Roger Kahn organizes the book as almost a dialogue between Rose and himself, which gives the reader the feeling that the book is cut and pasted together from random interviews. The transitions from Kahn's views to Rose's views are sloppy and at times confusing. It is hard to believe that Kahn spent three years writing this book. Buy the book for its information and overlook the unfortunate fact that Pete Rose selected the wrong person to write his biography. Roger Kahn was either loafing through the project or he was severely past his prime. Maybe he should have "hung 'em up" when Pete Rose did.
Rating:  Summary: Decent at Best Review: The book was very well written and was very good up until the time when Rose was charged with gambling. When it got at this time Rose talked around every single topic he was asked. Because of this book I am 99% sure Pete Rose bet on baseball.
