“What did I like? Having grown up in the 1950s this book really grabbed me. Having two bases in the town made it a good chance that a girl would run into boys from military families at some time or another. I happen to have had four boyfriends. Four because they moved so often.
Most of them were transferred after their dad’s had finished training. Two of them shared a lot of the things that went on at home and one of them was so close to Dave’s life!” - DD Gott - Donadees Corner @williamAGlass3

and it’s easy to get caught up in the Knight family’s tragic story, one largely written by the family’s alcoholic patriarch, a man unwilling ever to put his wife and children above his own military ambitions.
It’s one hell of a ride.” – Sam Sattler

“As Good As Can Be is a thoroughly enjoyable read. The novel takes place during the 1950s, 60s, and 70s and follows a boy, Dave Knight, and his escapades."

It brings back so many memories for those of us who grew up during these turbulent years. This novel should be considered historically correct fiction.
The language is occasionally raucous, but so characteristic of the time that it wouldn't seem correct without it. Try it - I think you will like it; especially if you grew up during this era.” – Rosanna B.

Both of my g-fathers, all 10 of my great uncles, my uncle, and now my son. Every gen since 1700s my family has served this country. None were losers or suckers, they're true Americans, and deserve respect and honor by a Pres who dodged the draft. #MilitaryFamily 1/
If I had pics of all of them I'd tweet every single one. Some wounded. Some killed in action. Some died of injuries sustained in war. Some lived a long life, but with PTSD. My son's father is also a Gulf war vet.

The stain sitting in the WH has no room to call anyone loser. 2/3
Despite the chaos and corruption in the WH my son chose to serve, because he's still kind enough, and hopeful enough to believe we will do the right thing in November. I hope he's right 3/3
