King of Doubt is riveting, emotionally honest, and brilliantly written. \u00a0What at first seems like a charming, coming-of-age tale transforms into a sharing of personal anguish. Told with sophisticated, self-deprecating humor, the story spins toward tragedy before being pulled back by unexpected events. \u00a0For those who enjoy masterful writing and great story telling, I highly recommend [King of Doubt].<\/p>\n

Best memoir I have ever read: great story engagingly told with descriptions painting vivid scenes. I recommend this for a realistic and inspiring look at the stepping stones through depression and self-doubt as well as a handbook on how to write a great memoir.<\/p>\n

“The book was incredible. Peter Gibb is so transparent, honest and forthcoming. I felt as though I was right with him every step of the way as he looked back upon his life and put the pieces together. What a gentle, caring man. Wow. And I\u2019m so glad he put the \u2018Discussion Questions’ at the end! I can\u2019t imagine anyone not responding positively to this amazing book.”<\/p>\n

King of Doubt<\/em> is a testament to the power of memoir to illuminate the past, redeem its shadows, and find wisdom and strength in life\u2019s mysteries. Beautifully written, suspenseful, and brave, Peter Gibb\u2019s saga of self-discovery will brace you with its honesty and enrich you with its heart. Buy this book!<\/p>\n – Mark Matousek [\/et_pb_testimonial][et_pb_testimonial _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n King of Doubt<\/em> is a story of adventuresome times, of intimate relationships, of inner determination. I was drawn in emotionally, riveted to every chapter. This book is beautifully written, a work of art, about growing up male, about taking on the world, about loving and not giving up on life. A tour de force!<\/p>\n – Susan Krieger, Stanford University [\/et_pb_testimonial][et_pb_testimonial _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Peter Gibb has experienced well but at a cost. His memoir takes the reader through the vicissitudes of a full life from a treacherous beginning in Scotland, through an undergraduate degree at Brown, to military service, and beyond. <\/span>King of Doubt<\/em><\/span>, a memoir of confession and triumph, deserves every reader\u2019s attention. The story sweeps forward with compelling intensity, in language that is detailed, humorous, and graceful. Here is a man who\u2019s taken the road less traveled and savored it fully.<\/span><\/p>\n – Kent Nelson [\/et_pb_testimonial][et_pb_testimonial _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n “King of Doubt<\/em>\u00a0is courageously written, an inspiring tribute to the human spirit. Highly recommended.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n – Brad Knickerbocker [\/et_pb_testimonial][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_testimonial _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n We meet Peter at the age of five in Scotland when he has won a race which he doesn\u2019t think he deserves. The doubt envelops him and takes up residence for many years.I was rooting for Peter from the beginning in his efforts to escape the malaise that blanketed him for much of his life, until, of course, he found answers.<\/p>\n His descriptions of the \u201crat factory\u201d in the psychology lab during college, his military service, an exploration of East Berlin during the Cold War, and the loves in his life reminded me of sitting with a favorite uncle who tells great stories. I looked forward to my reading time daily with a most entertaining friend.<\/p>\n Who should read this book? Anyone who has been challenged with depression, contemplated suicide (who hasn\u2019t?), spent time in confusion questioning their motives and relished a bit of parental anger while plowing though life looking for love and companionship. This is a well-written memoir that takes you on an exploration of one person\u2019s life and how he turned out. I loved the book so much I wanted to call the author to find out how he was doing. From the pleasant photo on the back I can tell he\u2019s doing fine.<\/p>\n Peter was much more likable than he thought. King of Doubt is a triumph!<\/p>\n – Marcia Fine [\/et_pb_testimonial][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Click To Read a Preview<\/a><\/p>\n
