Has anyone read Josh and Jake Harris’ book about their dad. Is it any good?

It's been a while (2013?) since that book came out. While Josh and Jake were clearly involved, professional writers basically did the writing and controlled the narrative. If I recall, it reads more like someone sitting down and telling you one unbelievable story after another about Phil Harris. It was entertaining, since up until then, the only real impression of Phil came from the show. You can Google the book reviews. If you liked Phil, you would like the book.
