What are "glittering generalities"? --Robert Daeley (talk) 09:00, 1 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]


I was wondering the same thing and removed the comment. Jasonid (talk) 04:58, 5 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Critical review

[edit]

What is the importance of "The book drew a critical review from James E. McWilliams"? I am sure lots of books and articles get lots of critical reviews, but I am unsure why this deserves mention. There must be other reviews out there and I don't understand why this one was singled out. Who is J. McWilliams and who cares (my apologies) about the Texas Observer? This seems very much like a personal plug to me. Receptacle (talk) 23:04, 26 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. Receiving a critical review is not really news, especially for a #1 bestseller. The mention draws too munch undeserved attention to the review and not the book, which is supposed to be the subject of this article. I removed the mention from the main text and added the link to the External Links section if anyone's interested. Doomsdayer520 (Talk|Contribs) 08:57, 23 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
