A Vast Conspiracy: The Real Story of the Sex Scandal That Nearly Brought… (udgave 2000)

5714. A Vast Conspiracy The Real Story of the Sex Scandal That Nearly Brought Down a President, by Jeffrey Toobin (read 1 Nov 2020) This book was published in 1999 and so it was written in the same year that Clinton was impeached and acquitted. It is unsparing in its depiction of Clinton's behavior but also is very critical of the people who sought to oust Clinton from the presidency. It tells the whole story of what Clinton did, and of the determination of his political enemies to drive him from office, even though his actions and words were all related to his immoral behavior with the woman, Monica Lewinsky, who pursued him, and his alleged gross behavior with Paula Jones. The book tells in chronological order the whole story which unfolded and which the public followed as it became known. We all know the story but this book was read by me because it was written by Toobin who wrote three other books I had good memories of: The Nine Inside the Secret World of the Supreme Court (read 19 Mae 2008), The Oath The Obama White House and the Supreme Court ( read 28 Oct 2012), and American Heiress The Wild Saga of the Kidnapping, Crimes and Trial of Patty Hearst (read 19 Nov 2016).
