Customer Reviews

Amazing Adventure!

This amazing memoir tells the story of a privileged man's journey from boyhood to manhood. As the reader, I was able to travel to foreign countries, experience war, and the ups and downs of love. The most amazing part of the story is when Arthur meets Jane, his 4th wife and love of his life. Hadley's memoir provides hope and insight. I never realized the great role that chance plays in a person's life. Society tends to depict fortune and misfortune as uncontrollable events. Hadley's memoir emphasizes that taking risks allows a person to have a more fulfilling life. Heads or Tails encourages us to reevaluate our own lives in order to reach our potential. I also loved the photographs of the author and his family included in the middle of the book. I cried at the end of the memoir. Arthur Hadley's story is truly amazing!

A Wonderful Read

Arthur Hadley has lived long and large and this incredible memoir that intertwines his personal and professional endeavors with equal clarity and fascination is a great page-turner. It's rare to find a writer of such grace on topics both personal and political. I highly recommend this book.

Moving and Inspirational

"Arthur Hadley is a marvel and this is an exceptional memoir of growing and surviving a seemingly elegant but frozen family" -David Halberstam I saw this quote and after reading this book, I wholeheartedly agree that this book is a "marvel" and "exceptional." I cried at the end (and I never cry). This book is one of those rare ones that truly move the soul. I am buying three extras to give as gifts!
