America's most notorious FBI Director is now the subject of major Hollywood film J Edgar, starring Leonardo DiCaprio and directed by Clint Eastwood.
For nearly 50 years, Hoover was the most powerful man in the USA. He used his intimate knowledge of John F. Kennedy's sex life to ensure that Lyndon Johnson became Vice President, and later suppressed evidence about JFK's assassination. He also explores the shadowy truths behind the assassinations of not only JFK, but also Robert Kennedy and Martin Luther King Jr. Summers also reveals that Hoover was a closet homosexual and enjoyed dressing up as a woman, which led to him being blackmailed by the Mafia. You can also watch the Clint Eastwood film based on this book, now on dvd.
