This book is written by a man whose father performs abortions in the same city where another abortionist was shot by a fanatical anti-abortion activist. There is a great deal of detail about the city of Buffalo, the father's life, and the day to day experiences of the narrator growing up. The book is well written and seems to be relatively fair in its characterizations of pro-choice and pro-life characters. It is not angry or bitter as I feared it would be. Interesting read.
