I agree with the other reviewer - this was not what I expected or hoped. I also read "Never have your dog stuffed" and hoped for more insight into Alda's life. Instead, what I got was a non-cohesive conglomeration of speeches Alda gave, tied together with some tenuous segues. Perhaps Alda's publisher was so happy with the proceeds of the first book that they sent him back to the well - and this was the best he could come up with. Disappointing.
