G-man : J. Edgar Hoover and the making of the American century

Books
As head of the FBI from 1924 through his death in 1972, Hoover was the most influential federal appointee of the 20th century, a confidant, counselor, and adversary to eight U.S. presidents. 'G-Man' will situate Hoover's story within a sweeping reinterpretation of American politics in the 20th century, a new look for the post-Cold War generation at one of the most important but least understood figures in American political life.
