Tersul,

Well, it is an interesting book. I did read it, and I did glean some good info from it.....BUT, remember, it only gives one persons opinion of The Villages....and that person is a lot younger, and admitted up front that he had a strong bias against The Villages, and all other 55+ places in general.

As one wise person so wittingly said here, (In the leisurville thread here under the "book" forum) that it was like a childless person writing about raising kids.....or something like that.

Make sure you read it at the kitchen table, so you are close to the salt shaker....you need to read it with more then a few grains of salt.

Enjoy! Frank D.
