Customer Reviews

Giving grace to others is as important as receiving it.....

Split Ticket is a fun, farsical romp through the Sacramento, CA political landscape as penned by Senator H.L. Richardson. It is plausible and entertaining and witty; and all written from a faith-based perspective that was refreshing to read.

thank god my exgirlfriend loved thrift stores

if my at that time girlfriend hadn't had dragged me to the thrift store so she could buy cloths I would have never heard of this book. While she was trying stuff on I saw this in the book section and figured it sounded good and might be interesting for a political science major like myself so I bought it. This book is great it keeps you on the edge of your seat and lets you into the cooky world of California politics I recomend this book to any one interested in politics or for fans of comedies I think this book would make a perfect movie.

An insider's view of politics through a good novel

H. L. Richardson was in the Califonia State Senate for 22 years, and developed a keen insight into how politics really works. He authored several books before this one, and has developed a smooth and entertaining writing style...a bit like Carl Hiaasen without the "edge." His sharp sense of humor even comes through in his titles, like his earlier book: "What Makes You Think We Read The Bills?""Split Ticket" tells the story of a well-meaning businessman, who gets tricked into getting more involved in politics than he intends. The tale keeps your attention, and shows the undercurrents in a humerous way, without becoming cynical. Good clean fun, with a point. I really enjoyed reading this one.
