A good workhorse of a book covering the professional lives of 11 of Edward R. Murrow's mentees. Although the book makes it relatively easy to keep track of so many individuals, the authors could have stood to either write a few more pages or focus on a few fewer subjects. Either would have been equally suitable and I'll let that sum up my feelings on the quality of the writing itself.
