The subject of this book is very interesting to me, and I'm rounding up to 4 stars due to that and the large amount of journalistic research that must have went into the making of the book. I can't imagine that most of the old members of cDc were interested in an in-depth analysis of their history, but the author seems to have drawn out plenty of details from them.

Ultimately, though, the telling of the stories starts to get a bit dry by the end and there are lots of names dropped throughout that can make following along a bit difficult without flipping pages back and forth to remind yourself who is who.
