Kurzbeschreibung
Paul Harvey is the most listened-to radio personality in America. Millions of loyal listeners tune in every week to hear his unique blend of news and views. Now the man who brought us The Rest Of The Story brings us the humor behind the headlines in this hilarious collection of truth-is-funnier-than-fiction stories. Told in Paul Harvey's unique, inimitable, and unforgettable style, here are stories that will tickle you, touch you-and just plain make you laugh out loud, such as . . .the jogger who quit running because the wind kept putting out his cigarette, the man who fell into a tree stump and had to be rescued by forest rangers, the nude sunbather on the hotel roof who accidentally stretched out over the dining room skylight, the woman karate expert who stopped a purse snatcher cold--by hitting him over the head with her umbrella, the man who resigned himself to deafness for twenty years--until he discovered his hearing aid was in the wrong ear. From wacky want ads to riotous run-ins with the law, from embarrassing moments at home and work to the frank and funny things kids say, Paul Harvey's For What It's Worth celebrates human eccentricity in all its infinitely amusing variety.

First i heard Paul Harvey on AFN Stuttgart in 1985, way back 17 years ago. I woke up with AFN, had breakfast with Paul Harvey's Rest of the Story and had an enjoyable start of the day. I read this piece last year for the first time and it is incredible. Have a look yourself, you'll enjoy it. I bet.

Worth it....!
19. Juli 2000
Format:Taschenbuch
Nobody tells a story like Paul Harvey! I know what your thinking: "I've gotten enough of this kind of thing through junk-email." Let me remind you though that this is from a time before the age of unsolicited, and even worse, unedited internet email traffic. This is the good stuff! And best of all it's edited for read-aloud/radio broadcasting! This is life! This book is made of the stuff people laugh about to themselves. What embarassing and silly stories have they yet to disclose for the welfare of the general public??? Thank Paul Harvey for sharing the stories his For What it's Worth Department collected. This is a modern classic. Read it to your kids around the ol' campfire.

My Review, For What It's Worth
3. August 2000
Format:Taschenbuch
One of the best parts of the daily Paul Harvey News and Comment is the closing piece, "For What it's Worth." The stories are examples of true situations and portray a humorous angle of bumps and mishaps in everyday life. This book is a collection of those radio annecdotes and makes for very enjoyable reading. It's the perfect companion for the morning commute on the train or bus! Once you read a few of them you won't want to stop!

Very Enjoyable, Very Readable
21. April 2003
Format:Taschenbuch
The only reason the fifth star was dropped of Mr. Harvey's book was because the book could have been longer. Paul Harvey has been doing radio a long time, so that should leave more stories available for use. Not that the ones included were bad, they were hilarious.
This book takes about an afternoon to read, and you will continually go back to it. Many of Paul Harvey's stories are on the internet in the form of forwards, but Harvey is not mentioned in them. Here is where you can find most of them.
I would even rate this book as more readable than other news of the weird type columns.
A more extensive collection would be great, but alas, we are left with this. Fortunately, we can still listen to Paul Harvey on the radio. His "For What it's Worth" section will never grow stale.
