Ben Jones (3)

This is the autobiography of Ben Jones, Cooter from The Dukes of Hazard. I found it interesting, charming, and delightful. It's a quick read of his life in WWII Portsmith, VA through his days of protesting for civil rights in the 60's to his acting and his time in politics and after. He did a lot. I liked reading of history through his eyes especially the civil rights movement and his time in the House of Representatives. He's done and seen a lot. It was also fun as he recalled his days on show more The Dukes of Hazard and the reunion and nostalgia of the show. I'm glad I read it. show less

I finished this book the other day and I found it to be one of the best biographies I have had in a while. I don't want to spoil this book because it is filled with a ot of great information about his life, his career, and the times we are all in.The best line from the book (paraphrased): "...the entire Endowment for the Arts cost one half of one wing of one B2 Bomber." Thanks, Ben for sharing your life story. I expect another volume in a few years time.

Boy meets bottle, boy loses bottle. Boy meets girl, girl, girl, girl, boy loses girl, girl, girl. Boy finds success on television, boy clings to television fame for many years.
