Critic and bestselling author Joe Queenan had made a career of being vicious -- then he decided to be nice. The result is a biting, hilarious tale of a very bad man's attempts to be good.Years upon years of being unspeakably nasty to icons as diverse as Jimmy Carter, Barbra Streisand, and even Mother Nature herself had taken its toll on Joe Queenan.
