John Boertlein

This is represented as non-fiction. where, then, are the pages of attribution or an index of where mister boertleion obtained his material? This absence makes the whole project suspect of truth.

I am a presidential buff and most of the material in here i knew, but as for the bedroom exploits of the presidents, who gives a good goddamn? have we reached the point where we have no respect for our cheif executive whatsoever? Ffrankly, I beleive some of his reported boudoir excerpts are fiction, e.g., give me some backup on jayne mansfield diddling JFK when she was eight months pregnant and, even if it were true, who gives a good god-damn.
the writing is good; the layout is wonderful in its use of white space and graphics; the many pages spent on scandals are an excellent review for this codger, and, if he woujld simply attribute his statements in a glossary, indewx, or notes at the end section, i'd move this up to a 45-star rating.
I don't mean to be deprectory about mister B's pciture, but a porky with a bottle of whiskey in one hand and a playboy mag in the other, capped off my a cigar in the mouth, does not make me a believer in the man's literary talents. he was a sergeant in a 30-year career in the Cincinnati PD? note it doesn't detective sergeant.
