Secret Service Agents: Life Protecting the President (Extreme Careers) 1 review David Seidman
Rosen Publishing Group, 2002
Yet ANOTHER fine "kids" book about the Secret Service
As the leading civilian authority on the U.S. Secret Service, I was greatly suprised and impressed with this "kids" book about the Secret Service. Some very good information about the modern Secret Service is captured in good detail. In addition, there are several nice photographs included. Buy it!

The U.S. Secret Service (Your Government: How It Works) 1 review Ann Gaines
Chelsea House Publications, 2001
Another surprisingly good "children's" book on the Service!
Author Ann Graham Gaines should be commended for putting together, along with Senior Consulting Editor Arthur M. Schlesigner, Jr., such a fine volume on the Secret Service. The funny thing is: this book may be intended for a young audience, but is actually quite appropriate for an older readership, ...

Secret Service History, Duties and Equipment 1 review C.B. Colby
Putnam Pub Group (L), 1966
Decent short book for the young (and old)
As the leading civilian authority on the U.S. Secret Service, I reluctantly impose a 3-star rating on this work. It may be short, dated, and intended for a young audience, but it DOES have some good moments, especially the photographs (I especially like the one of Stu Knight and Art Godfrey at ...

Image of an Assassination - A New Look at the Zapruder Film 42 reviews Peter Dean, Jack Franzen (II)
Mpi Home Video, 1998
History as you may never see again
+ Excellent DVD about the history of the Zapruder film. + just a minor correction
Eyewitnesses are given too much credibility and are notoriously inaccurate. Conspiracy buffs have fashioned an industry out of events told and retold but this footage is the best witness. It is also horrific to watch. I had heard the Parkland surgeons all talk about a head wound behind the ...

This is a winner!
+ The Attempt on President Truman's Life
This has everything you want in a good book. A great story, history, drama, and pathos. I am a history teacher and was impressed by both the depth of research and the quality of the writing.
This is about 2 Puerto Rican Nationalists who, compelled by their fervent beliefs, tried to assassinate ...

Dangerous World: The Kennedy Years 3 reviews Peter Jennings, Fidel Castro
Mpi Home Video, 2001
Worth it for former agent's Sherman, Newman, Paolella, & McIntyre
I modestly recommend this video, as it contains the on-camera comments of former Secret Service agent's Tony Sherman, Larry Newman, Joe Paolella, and William "Tim" McIntyre, all of whom I have spoken to and/ or corresponded with myself. That said, I do not endorse Seymour Hersh's book, per se...but ...

Very good book about this fascinating agency
As the leading civilian authority on the U.S. Secret Service, I modestly recommend this work, especially for those with a keen interest in the Secret Service. There are some fine photographs and, with a nice introduction by Arthur Schlesinger, you just can't lose. It's alittle dated, but it's still ...

Secret Service (High Interest Books: Top Secret) 1 review Mark Beyer
Children's Press (CT), 2003
Don't let the slim size fool you!
Richly illustrated, well written, and very informative, Mark Beyer does a fine job of providing a "Cliff Notes" tome about the Secret Service that is especially geared for the young. That said, this book is suprisingly good and can even find an audience with people of all ages. As the leading ...

Definitive Proof: The Secret Service Murder of President John Fitzgerald Kennedy 9 reviews Dan Robertson
Lulu.com, 2006
This book truly solves who killed JFK
+ The Definitive book on the Assassination of JFK
I read Robertson's book and reviewed the DVD he wrote about. I must admit that I was very skeptical at first, but after reviewing everything, including the DVD multiple times, I saw it! Greer did kill JFK! As Robertson says in his book and as he shows in his photos, the gun is not near Kellerman's ...

Stalking the President 1 review Paul Gregory, Ernest Aschkenasy
Kultur Video, 1995
Decent overview of past assassinations
I modestly recommend this video, as it is a decent overview of past assassinations. I did not care for the annoying "official" story re: 11/22/63 and Oswald but, other than that, this serves as a nice primer on the history of political violence in our country.
