Best book of 2013 says Alan Rusbridger, editor in chief of The Guardian, in Books of the Year 2013, New Statesman (UK): Goodale is a passionate defender of First Amendment rights and his insider account of this crucial struggle is surprisingly racy - and extremely important. R. Alan Clanton, editor of on-line Thursday Review, names it as one of The 12 Best Non-Fiction books of 2013. The New York Review of Books calls it fascinating (see Three Leakers and What to Do About Them NYRB Feb 6, 2014).
