Raves and Reviews

Gerald Moore has penned an engrossing memoir tracing his rise from philosophy student and nighttime cop to leading reporter, bureau chief, and editor for LIFE magazine in a bygone era when print was king. From his portrait of rough-and-tumble days in Albuquerque in the early 1960s, where he got his start in journalism, to the time when his bylined national stories were read in the halls of power and the living rooms of America, LIFE Story is an evocative and memorable read.--James McGrath Morris, author of Pulitzer: A Life in Politics, Print, and Power
