My third book THE NOT SO SECRET SERVICE- AGENCY TALES FROM FDR TO THE KENNEDY ASSASSINATION TO THE REAGAN ERA

My third book THE NOT SO SECRET SERVICE- AGENCY TALES FROM FDR TO THE KENNEDY ASSASSINATION TO THE REAGAN ERA comes out in 2017. My first two books have done so well there is strong demand for a third! This one will further debunk and destroy the credibility of Blaine, Zboril, and their ilk, but there is more; much more. I cover the period from the early 1930's to the late 1980's (FDR-REAGAN). This one will be the most readable of the three.
