What are people saying about Inside Politics in America: A View From the Outside?

     “Webster’s Collegiate Dictionary cites two definitions of “gadfly”.  The first is a large fly that bites livestock.  The second is a person who annoys others by rousing them from complacency.  So when I say Jeffrey Paul is a “gadfly”, I’m talking definition #2 and I mean it as a compliment.  His book, Inside Politics in America : A View from the Outside, shows why.  His compilation of letters and commentaries gives the reader real insight into his persistent campaign to rouse others from complacency.  You can agree with him, or disagree, but you can’t ignore him.  At least newspaper editors here and around the country haven’t been able to because he knows how to select an engaging topic, make his point and head for the exit before the reader gets bored.  He’s a veritable verbal drive-by who makes you think.  And that’s easier said than done.”

—Kent Walz, Editor, Albuquerque Journal

     “Jeffrey Paul’s well written book illustrates the importance of Letters to the Editor as a political tool.  The letters are far more than just a means of voicing approval or disapproval.”

—Mel Eisenstadt, author of The Great Colorado River Water War

     “Paul’s comments are delivered with great insight and a touch of irony and humor…a delightful journey filled with wisdom.”

----New Mexico Governor David Cargo, 1967-1971
