Documents from the late FBI director's secret files reveal for the first time the shocking extent of FBI activities in spying on prominent Americans and political groups. A grimly fascinating—and profoundly disturbing—self-exposure by one of the false American deities of the 20th century. —Arthur M. Schlesinger, Jr.
Hoover may have died without leaving us an autobiography that might have enriched history and gossip, but that loss has been handsomely repaired by Professor Athan Theoharis.
