Rating: 5 stars
Summary: He Gives the Gun Control Lobby Cat-Scratch Fever
Review: This book is an intriguing... He might be preaching to the choir with his no holds-barred, standing up for what's right book. However, rocker Ted Nugent sets the record straight. He is a straight shooter- whether he is speaking out on issues of morality or the right to keep and bear arms- he tells it like it is.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Awesome!
Review: Common sense, values and respect! That's what this book and life are all about. Ted says it well and I can see many of the p.c. people out there thumbing their noses at it. Unfortunately, they're the ones who SHOULD be reading this book.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Nuge is nuts!!!
Review: He's crazy. He always has been! This book reads like a conversation with Nugent and I really enjoyed it, even though I am not certain I always understand. Despite this, I found we do have a lot of beliefs in common. Read it. Enjoy!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Wish I could have gave it 100 stars.....
Review: I loved this book. We need far more people on this "planet of the apes" like the old Nuge. He is a true American, with a real understanding of what the founding fathers had in mind when they used the word "freedom." My hat is off to you Ted......you can watch my back anytime! As a side note, I trust VERY FEW people BEHIND me with a firearm......you would be one of the trusted ones.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Being Ted
Review: I have a confession to make. I'm a Detroiter, and I've always been a Nugent fan. Not so much of his music, just of The Nuge. He's never bothered to become an A-list rock'n'roll star (though he could have) since he's found a way to make a very good living just Being Ted. I love the guy, though he's probably a bit more loveable in smaller doses than this book gives you. A little of his "great spirit", howl at the sky style goes quite a long way.

It was a bit disappointing that the book wasn't more biographical. It consists mostly of hunting stories, mixed liberally (if I can use that word in his presence) with his unorthodox but oh-my-god certainly heartfelt philosophy of clean living through killing everything in sight.

But he also slides in a large amount of common-sense wisdom. Responsible gun use. Love of family. The insanity of "recreational" drugs. It would be pointless to argue.

I've always sorta doubted that Ted NEVER EVER EVER did drugs, even in his youth. I remember the big Amboy Dukes album, which was an anthem to drug use from start to finish. But maybe he just went along on that one occasion, who's to say? I hoped he would address this in his book, but except for one photograph the Amboy Dukes aren't mentioned at all. Oh, well; who of us doesn't try to put a different spin on, or just ignore, foolish things we did when we were teenagers? It's certainly true that they (all those big name rockers from the sixties) did drugs and now they're dead, he went hunting and he's still Ted.

His chapter on Fred Bear was heartwarming. He had been acquainted with Bear from his childhood through his father, an early Michigan bowhunter. But as Ted began to come into his own, Bear had to be coaxed to associate with him. Bear despised everything about the rock and roll "culture", and although Ted was certainly no drug-soaked rocker he also certainly looked the part. But in time Bear became his close friend and mentor. I can imagine how deeply Ted felt his loss. He does a good thing in keeping Bear's name alive.

Love him or hate him, he's still Ted. I suspect most of us, down deep where we keep the things we don't admit in public, wish we were him. I certainly do.

Hell, I just wish I had his hair.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Best book I've read!!
Review: Ted Nugent did the world a great thing when he wrote this book. He did a wonderful job relating firearms, hunting, outdoor living, and the anti-drug program. I would personally reccomend this book to anyone that is having trouble with raising children, or who wants to put their life back in the outdoors. Uncle Ted has many great ideas to bring a family back together, and how for parents to become more involved in their kid's lives. If you can stand Ted's extreme attitude you will love this book!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A BOOK OF PHILOSOPHY FOR THE ROCK-N-ROLL GENERATION
Review: Ted explains his lust for "Life, Liberty, and The Pursuit of Happiness" in a way that makes you want to stand up and cheer!!! This book could turn you from one of the "sheeple"(as compared to "people") into one of the sheep dogs guarding our liberty.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: For those who seek the Truth! Sheeple need not apply!
Review: When in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for People to seek reliable and "NONSPUN" information on how to obtain the ultimate goals of all true Americans, Life Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness, we are forced to turn to the "Gonzo Great White Hunter" that wildman of Rock And Roll... the "NUGE!"

I have read many books by celebrities and famous people of which most were not worth a bucket of warm spit! This book by far is the exception! Ted lets us see into his world and his way of life. He shows us how to be self reliant, to be responsible for our own happiness and how to teach the truth about firearms and firearms safety, all by showing us how HE does it! Ted also tells you how to equip yourself for everyday life by carrying the essentials to deal with any situation. My life has been so much better since I have followed his advice.

Did you like Bill O'Reilly's book "The O'Reilly Factor"?

Did You like Matt Drudge's book "The Drudge Manifesto"?

Did you Like Larry Elder's book "The Ten Things You Can't Say in America"?

Good, because you will like this book even better!

This book contains the Truth and Ted cuts no Slack!

If you want "PC," you are barking up the wrong tree!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Uncle Ted, What a Guy!
Review: One of the best books I have ever read. His humor, love of Family and freedom. If only it were contagious :D

Thanks Ted!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Title's Misleading
Review: I got this book hoping to read about a true wildman of rock'n roll, but I must say I came away very disappointed.It was all about Ted Nugent's love of guns,and very little on Rock'n roll.Maybe it should have been titled"I Love Guns",so at least people would know what to expect.I ain't attackin' his pro-gun position,I just wanted to read more about the music!Oh well,there was a cool picture included of Ted's first band,"The Amboy Dukes",so it wasn't a total loss.
