The average rating for Jim Hunt: A Biography based on 2 reviews is 4 stars.

Review # 1 was written on 2020-06-09 00:00:00 Robert Baird Pearce, with his insider perspective, focuses on Hunt's various campaigns and terms in office. As the "Education Governor" Hunt transformed North Carolina over his four terms as Governor. The author offers a very readable accounting of the many projects that the energetic politician undertook to shape the lives of North Carolinians for the better. I believe any North Carolinian would benefit by reading this biography.

Review # 2 was written on 2012-03-20 00:00:00 Samantha Schwartz A nice, quick read. For my purposes, the bio was a helpful insight into NC policy/politics during my youth, before love of home-state history kicked in more heavily. This is a quick read because it is a combination of bio and memoir from Gary Pearce's perspective as a media aid to Hunt.
