Reviews
"The only thing wrong with this book is its title: No amount of Liebling is ever enough. He had a raptor's eye, a virtuoso's ear, and an enormous heart. He was wildly funny and frequently profound, and he may well have been the greatest American prose stylist of the twentieth century. " --Luc Sante, author of Low Life "Liebling, it's now apparent, is not just one of the great American reporters but one of the great American writers, whose baroque sentences continue to twist and turn and soar to our delight and instruction , his high and hyperbolic comic constructions glinting in the light of his first-rate and empirical intelligence. There can never be enough Liebling around but "Just Enough Liebling" is a wonderful start, and a necessary purchase for anyone who cares about American style." --Adam Gopnik, author of Paris to the Moon "All great city reporting begins in the general vicinity of the little desks that pack Liebling's Jollity Building, and, now that I've revisited all those airless offices and always-manned phonebooths yet again, it probably ends there too." --Robert Sullivan, author of Rats "[Liebling] glorified gluttony not only by indulging in food in great amounts, but in consuming in great detail the events of his time, the high life, low life, people at peace and war, prizefighters in the ring and on the political stump. He was a chronicler, a critic, and a writer whose style influenced mid-20th century writers and continues to set an example worthy of admiring at the present time. In the late 1950s I had a job in The Times' sports dept., and what I most looked forward to seeing while attending big fights was the figure of Liebling at the ringside, squeezed into a folding chair, squinting through those thick glasses out through the cigar smoke and missing nothing." --Gay Talese

Synopsis
To read these pieces by one of the first great New Yorker writers is to be swept along on a thrilling adventure in a world of confident men, rogues, press barons and political cronies, with an inimitable writer as one's guide.
