5.0 out of 5 stars I loved it, October 30, 2001
By 
v9 (cucamonga, ca) - See all my reviews
An ideal bathroom book: full of thirty second anecdotes. I'm no historian, but reasonably well read, and as best I can tell, almost all of these stories are true. It features the humorous, scandalous, and tragic. An excellent side view of US history.
