RJ Deeds’s Reviews > Official and Confidential: The Secret Life of J. Edgar Hoover > Status Update

This is a great story and a great book. It goes through how Hoover exploited fears in America to create the FBI at a relatively young age. He hid his sexuality from the view of everyone in plain sight. He was indulgent to his overpowering mother at all stages. He easily mixed with all in society, including the Mafia, but all the time watching. The book proved an invaluable source for my daughter's project.
