Summary: The book that makes dreams come true!!!
Review: A Self Made Man was a very well written book.
The emotion that was there was fabulous, it was funny, interesting & sad but most of all, for me it was heart warming.The book gives a very good account of a day to day life of a female to male transsexual, the ups and downs.
The best thing i found was that Paul was really honest and didn't hide the not so good parts of being an FTM. I would say that the only thing missing from this book was some finer detail....How did he choose the name Paul? Who did he first go to in a medical capacity for help? Were they any good? How long from that point did it take to start testosterone?
I think in a book of this nature the whole point is to try to help others in that situation, which it does, however as i have detailed, i don't think there was enough info about the lead up to starting testosterone. Paul Hewitts, A Self Made Man gave me the courage to believe that it was time that the little boy that had been inside me for 28 years should come out and breathe for the first time. So, come on Paul, whats been happening since then? It's time for another!!!!

Summary: Not just a pretty face
Review: This book was as inspirering as it confronts the transition between women and women. Paul Hewitt writes a very honest and from the heart account of his early life, his loves and the steps which led him to change his gender, and fulfill what he ahd always beleived himself to be. I read this book as recommended by a friend, this book is very importnat to the FTM transsexual community it has been ground breaking in the way Paul has addressed differcult issues. I would highly recommend this book for anybody who needs advice and additude from a very confident writer and person. The book fills my world with hope and admiration every time I read it. The only way that I would improve this book would be to MAKE IT LONGER. And Paul if you are reading this it would great to see and read a follow up, perhaps telling the stories of how you see yourself in 10 years, your surgery and of course the neverending stream of women in your life. Paul is a credit to the male community and may he and his fellow FTM's live in peace and happiness. I admire him greatly for putting his feelings on paper. Thanks Paul
