Art Buchwald lived and wrote in Paris when I was in high school about 60 miles away. It felt like he was one of the family and we always kept up with his column. For these reasons, this was a special book to me. I have enjoyed his autobiography and other books too. He spoke at our high school graduation and was presented with an honorary high school diploma fro Orleans American High as he never finished school. He remains on our class roll today.
