Steve Gill just announced on his radio show this morning that he has penned a book on the Tennessee political subject burning up all forms of media, old and new. That subject is, of course, the political aspirations and plans of Fred Dalton Thompson. The Fred Factor will no doubt be a pro-Fred book as it is written by a pro-Fred radio talker but it has been thoroughly researched and will include an extensive biography section as well as the obligatory polemics. I'm excited to read it.
