I went ahead and purchased Doherty's Jesus: Neither God Nor Man for the full argument and it is immensely useful for an exploration of all the relevant evidence.
Compared to that Ehrman's Jesus book is weak sauce.
I bought a used copy of Erhman's book for $5 and even at that it was very disappointing. I wanted an argument for an historical Jesus that went beyond hypothetical sources such as Aramaic texts about Jesus that don't exist, but that was all he offered. He left those arguing for an HJ with nothing.
