J. Edgar Hoover: The Man and the Secrets by Curt Gentry

3.0

this was an amazing biographical/historical type book. Amazing. I learned a lot I didn't know, I learned more about things I already knew. The one downside is that it is an extremely information dense book. Wow. This book took me awhile to read because I occasionally had to take some breaks from reading it, and read something else to let my brain take a rest. I would recommend this book to someone that likes this type of book. Keep your smartphone or laptop near by because you're going to want to look stuff up. I looked up many names I couldn't remember from earlier, and many times I would look up stuff to learn more because the book made me want to learn more about it. I learned so much that isn't in your average history book and I learned perhaps too much about Mr. Hoover.
