IN-DEPTH: THE SEATTLE TIMES
 
Remember “old school” journalism, where a reporter really dug into it a story? I’m thrilled with the “old school” review that Seattle Times economic columnist, Jon Talton, just gave Think Black. Of course, I’m glad that Jon liked the book but more than that, he really faithfully captured the essence of what I wanted to communicate in his well-written, thoughtful column. 
 
Read Jon's column.
