Book Review: A Jab Through the Soul
Summary: 5 Stars
A vivid, compelling tale, replete with memorable characters -- a punch drunk pugilist and pickled crop picker -- in unsettling scenarios. You, I. . . almost every one of us has hit bottom and asked how'd this happen, is there no way out? These guys hit harder than most, and we feel every bump along the way. For them, there are no easy outs. As for us, we come away appreciating our lot in life just a little bit more.
