Monroe's FBI Files,
By
This review is from: Marilyn Monroe: The FBI Files (Moments of History) (Paperback)
What an interesting read! Don't let the 'FBI files' part of the title intimidate you. While it includes all FBI documents relating to Monroe (original memo on one page & a typed translation on the opposite page), it has much, much more! A bit of biography, lots of pictures--this book is not to be missed. Items of particular interest are documents regarding a man whose name is still censored out to this day, the man is reportedly JFK. The book also includes reports of her alleged communism and trips to Mexico in her last months, investigation into her death (they called it a purposeful suicide) and even a memo regarding the Norman Mailer biography of MM published in 1973 (they weren't too happy that RFK and JFK were accused in the book). There is plenty of information not really known to the public, however be advised it can be a bit slow in some parts. Names and places are still censored by the FBI but any MM fan could easily piece in names and locations by the content and dates. I don't know why this book isn't as popular as other MM books, it's just as good and it has to make you wonder--Why was our government spending all those time and resources on Marilyn?
