America's Reluctant Prince: The Life of John F. Kennedy Jr. by Steven M. Gillon
“I read this one for work and didn’t expect to enjoy it as much as I did…it provided a lot of insight into the dawn of celebrity culture and the rise of People magazine.”
“Dan Abrams and David Fisher prove that the story of a libel case can indeed make for gripping reading.… Abrams and Fisher are gifted writers, and their prose is neither overly spare nor showy; they're clearly fascinated by the trial, and their enthusiasm for their subject matter shows. Theodore Roosevelt for the Defense is a must-read for anyone with a deep interest in the 26th president, or in First Amendment law, but any reader with an affection for American history will find something to admire in this book.”
“Snowden eventually decided his loyalties lay not with the agencies he was working for, but the public they were set up to protect. He felt ordinary citizens were being betrayed, and he had a duty to explain how.... His account of the experiences that led him to take momentous decisions, along with the details he gives of his family background, serve as a robust defense against accusations that he is a traitor."
