review 1: I got the impression that this book was hurriedly released as Sarah Palin's influence fades from the political scene. There were many errors that could have easily been corrected. Also, the structure seemed a bit disorganized. I never got a coherent picture of Palin's interaction with Alaska's energy corporations during her time as governor. I did get a clear picture, however, of her ineptitude as an executive, her narcissistic persona, the discord she sows, and her relentless disregard of facts. Interesting that several prominent Republicans wished to get her out of the Presidential campaign for 2012, knowing that her candidacy would bring disaster upon their party. In time, she will be just a blip of history, mercifully gone from our consciousness. That day cannot... more come soon enough to suit me. She encourages a dangerous polarity in our country and appeals to many who are misinformed.
review 2: Interesting bio about her family background and insights into her personality. Fundamentalist christian, ruthless, raised by a driven father. Not too intellectual. Very good at impressing people with her down-to-earth, girl-next-door persona. Misuse of power, vindictive, manipulative once she gets the power she wants.I was not impressed when I saw her earliest national interviews a few years ago, I thought she had the cadence and projection of a wordly politician but her words reflected a serious lack of scholarship and intellect. I thought she was a good actress. I have not changed my mind since. less
