That breezy, conversational tone comes across on the page." -- Entertainment Weekly "In his aw-shucks, sit-down-and-listen-for-a-spell memoir.... he reminisces in never-before-told stories...Rogers gracefully recalls the ups and downs on his wild ride to fame." -- BookPage "Engagingly honest." -- Toronto Star
