Gripping true story, well worth the read if you liked the movie starring Robert Blake as (gulp) a killer.

I liked it though at times he seemed overly critical of Nixon, seeing his actions more as underhanded where there may have been a loftier goal. But he also got into Nixon's psychology and in fairness did not give JFK or LBJ a free pass. I also liked how he blended pop culture and lesser known tidbits into the sort so you felt like you were living it. One downside is I felt he could have listed dates more to help keep track.
Good thorough analysis of the era--captured just how Nixon dominated the field even as McGovern surged.
Prescient and well told. Interesting that author found root of fascism in American populism, considering recent news.
Great Halloween read--more in depth than the film. Also makes one consider faith.
Greatest book ever written. Well worth rereads every few years. Hilarious and touching at once.
Very gripping true story of a horrible multiple murder and the years of investigation and trial that followed it. While MacDonald is likely guilty, there's good reason to think he didn't get a fair trial.
