　　McCain, with help from his administrative assistant Salter,

picks up where the bestselling Faith of My Fathers left off, after

his release from a North Vietnamese POW prison. After two decades

in Congress, he has plenty of stories to tell, beginning with his

first experiences on Capitol Hill as a navy liaison to the Senate,

where he became friends with men like Henry "Scoop" Jackson and

John Tower. (The latter friendship plays a crucial role in McCain's

account of the battle over Tower's 1989 nomination for defense

secretary.) He revisits the "Keating Five" affair that nearly

wrecked his career in the early '90s, pointedly observing how the

investigating Senate committee left him dangling for political

reas*** long after he'd been cleared of wrongdoing. There's much

less on his 2000 presidential campaign than one might expect; a

single chapter lingers on a self-lacerating ***ysis of how he lost

the South Carolina primary. (He admits, "I doubt I shall have

reason or opportunity to try again" for the White House, and may

even c***ider retiring from the Senate.) Self-criticism is a

recurring motif, as the senator berates himself for speaking

recklessly or letting his temper get the best of him. He

nevertheless takes pride in his status as a maverick and pays

tribute to inspirational figures like Theodore Roosevelt, Ted

Williams and Robert Jordan, the fictional protagonist of

Hemingway's For Whom the Bell Tolls. Luckily for McCain, he's such

an engaging storyteller most readers will readily accept these

digressi*** from his own remarkable history.
