Lawrence Hoffman. First editions are uncommon signed and inscribed. "Hoover's book was meant as a tribute to his former chief, but is it easy to suspect that anger and hurt might underlie a portrayal that presents the worst as well as the best in one of our greatest statesmen. What makes Hoover's memoir especially valuable to readers already familiar with the story are matters of tone and interpretation which Hoover himself. probably did not notice that he was making available" (David Burner, The Atlantic).
