If you like to take deep dive on political scandals and appreciate a thorough, balanced analysis, then this read is for you.
It was less on the salacious, more on the analytical which this reader liked.

Questions posed and the forthcoming conclusions carefully reached without any bias towards the two political parties, Republican and Democrat. Too often, authors bias' will taint a read. That's not the case here.

From the oft discussed Nixon's Watergate to the lesser known (other than to historians) Harding's Teapot Scandal, this read was not confined to the executive branch on the National level. On the contrary, the author delved into scandals reaching both at the State level as well as in the Legislative branches .

Answering the question: Do scandals matter? In today's current, polarized age?

You'll have to read the book, to find out. The answer is more complex than a simple 'yes' or 'no'
