King of the Cowboys: The Life and Times of Jerry Jones Review

This is not a bad book and I certainly recommend it for Dallas Cowboy fans or Jerry Jones fans, if there are any. But, it seemed to me to be more like a really long magazine article than a good book. That may largely be because it is written in the mid 1990's and lots of things have happened since that really belong in a book about Jones' life.
Overall it is a pretty good read and informative, but I found myself making an effort to finish it rather than having to make an effort to put it down. Dent's book about the Junction boys and Bear Bryant is a much better effort and one that was written at a better time - afterwards rather than during the story. That one was hard to put down.
