Book Review: See the Presidents behind the scenes
Summary: 5 Stars
"This is a delightful book about a Secret Service man who served from Wilson through FDR. He puts a human face on all the Presidents. You see through Starlings' eyes the Presidents as they were in private. You get to see their families and their activities. This book puts a very human face on some Presidents one never gets to see as very human such as Calvin Coolidge. There are several great chapters on Coolidge and you will at times laugh out loud at Coolidge's antics. At times you will be surprised to see the inner Coolidge come out. Starling and Coolidge were fond of each other and their practical jokes played on each other are fun to read about. A excellent book if you want to see the Presidents as they truly were as ppl.
