Just finished reading Jerry Foster's autobiography. I never write reviews but felt this book deserved one.
If you lived in Arizona in the 70s, 80s, or 90s (unless you lived under a rock) you knew Jerry Foster was the king of the skies. He captivated us with his live rescues, helping law enforcement chase down bad guys, and always being the first guy on the scene.
This book will give you an unprecedented view into the inner workings of the highly competitive TV news business. It is a truly fascinating story, starting from the very first primitive days of helicopter reporting (when Jerry literally created the industry), through today's hyper-competitive landscape.
It's also a very personal story. Jerry doesn't hold much back - he bares it all - which is what makes the book impossible to put down.
