It's on my bookshelf (a gift from my American History Teacher mother) and I've been putting it off, but now that I've finished "The Presidents Club" I will start it. I should have read it first, as the Club book tended to gloss over a number of things, which didn't surprise me, being written by Time Magazine reporters. It gave me that odd feeling of "wow, that is so interesting to know" juxtaposed with "is that really true?"

Thanks for your review and the kick in the pants.
