A True History of Violence (and Crimefighting, Politics, and Power)

In the hands of gifted cartoonist Rick Geary, J. Edgar Hoover''s life becomes a timely and pointed guide to eight presidents-from Calvin Coolidge to Richard Nixon-and everything from Prohibition to cold war espionage. From a nascent FBI''s headlinegrabbing tracking down of Dillinger and Machine Gun Kelly in the 1930s to Hoover''s increasingly paranoid post-WWII authorizing of illegal wiretaps, blackmail, and circumvention of Supreme Court decisions, J. Edgar Hoover: A Graphic Biography provides a special window into the life of an outsized American and a bird''seye view on the twentieth century.
