I just finished the book and I liked it very much. I learned a lot about Mr. Kelley and even if some of the TGM terms are not exactly right (said locked instead of cocked in one spot that I remember) it was a fun, fast read.
I really liked the story of how Mr. Kelley worked on the ideas (or carots as he called them), how he found Diane to be his model, and how the book got published and used. If you are into TGM and want some more information on Homer then get the book. I can't attest to how accurate the information is and I am sure there are other errors but this is one of the few biographies that I have totally enjoyed cover to cover.
All in all, I thought it was very well done and would recommend it to anyone who is interested in TGM. I even bought an extra copy to send to my brother in law (he is a TGM devotee from way back....got me hooked).
