5.0 out of 5 stars One of the most rivetting books I have ever read, 24 Sep 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Advise and Consent (Library Binding)
I have read this book many times. It is absolutely fascinating, in both the characterisations (even minor ones) and the descriptions of how business is done in the US Senate. My copy has finally disintegrated and I absolutely have to replace it!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book in a great series!!!!, 2 Jan 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Advise and Consent (Library Binding)
I first read Mr. Drury's entire "Advise/Consent" series of novels when in high school and have read each book several times again since, for the pure enjoyment of it all. All books in this series were well written, with great plots and characters. One could not help but feel as if one was part of the story. The plots could very well be characterizations of today's leaders and situations, both racial and political. Also, the way Mr. Drury split off into 2 story-lines on how each presidency would look had one man lived and the other died in the last novel of this series was pure genius and writing at its best!! The "Advise and Consent" novel was a VERY GOOD and EXCELLENT story of how the Senate goes about its business and the viciousness of politics. It was very exciting and a very fast read, NOT BORING as Mr. Leffingwell would have us all believe. For a good companion to this first novel, I would highly recommend the movie version of "Advise and Consent," starring Henry Fonda.

1.0 out of 5 stars -Novel showed a day in the Senate, but was very hard to read, 9 Dec 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Advise and Consent (Library Binding)
The novel was quite boring, and was very difficult to read. The fact that Brig is a turdburglar also took away from the plot of the story.
