While there haven't been many Secret Service related books about U.S. presidents, the ones still in print (and even those long out of print) are often sanitized memoirs of a politically correct nature or "tell-all" tabloid historical junk meant merely for entertainment purposes.

It may be controversial and against the grain, but this book is heavily documented and timely, as the Secret Service guards our political candidates, foreign dignitari... [Read More]

This gripping and trippy true account of international drug smuggling, the hippie underground, and the war on marijuana is a “wild, entertaining ride” (Kirkus Reviews).
