The end of The Late Show with David Letterman marked the end of a truly singular achievement in television.
Certainly, the 33 years of brilliance Dave brought to the screen are a story in itself, but a new book by Scott Ryan–The Last Days of Letterman–insightfully and meticulously chronicles the perfect and seamless flourish the greatest talk show host of our generation ended his late night career with.
