That's what all these newer Fleetwood Mac books do. It's such a game, such a confidence job. "It isn't the coffee -- it's the bunk" (to quote Preston Sturges in CHRISTMAS IN JULY).

Imagine the book we ledgies could throw together with the Blue Letter Archives at our disposal.

The most entertaining thing I found about the book was the edition I read had the words of the title running together, with the letters S & EX in red to highlight the word "sex".

Now that's journalism!
Indeed, & that's probably the only thing that will save print journalism.
