Actor Paul Adelstein narrates in a way that Brooklyn-born Herb Cohen might have sounded in his prime: confident, strong, and with a hint of know-it-all impatience. With Adelstein's clear vocal tone and unwavering clarity, he is a wonderful choice to narrate these sharp-witted anecdotes about a unique American personality. The son of Jewish immigrants, Cohen was trained as an attorney but became an expert on negotiating--the art of "caring about your interests, but not too much." The author, Herb's son and a prolific nonfiction author, writes with a similar New York City vibe, a crisp style that is full of energy and well-crafted observations. With rich lessons and colorful family stories, this is an entertaining glimpse of one man's life and legacy. T.W. © AudioFile 2022, Portland, Maine [Published: JUNE 2022]
