Reviews

Using enlightening humor as well as righteous, well-founded frustration and anger, Herman effectively deconstructs the tendency of men to focus on hair, voice, clothing, and body type rather than pertinent qualifications and accomplishments...a nice balance of serious inquiry and well-placed levity. Timely and politically spot-on, this is sure to be a popular title -- Kirkus Reviews Brisk and witty... Herman marshals a plethora of evidence in support of her cause and draws incisive connections between the past and the present. This feminist history enrages and entertains. -- Publishers Weekly A racy, revealing look at illicit sex involving the country's highest office. -- Kirkus Reviews on Sex with Presidents Packed with colorful character sketches and bawdy puns...this ribald and richly detailed history entertains. -- Publishers Weekly on Sex with Presidents Herman adroitly exhibits her storytelling prowess in blending the documented gossip of the time with personal details from interviews and memoirs to write a book that is both historical and wildly entertaining. -- Library Journal on Sex with Presidents At a moment when presidential sex scandals have few immediate consequences, this book will remind readers of the moral and political complexity of the topic while providing an entertaining introduction. -- Booklist on Sex with Presidents Well researched...although humorous at times, Sex with Presidents does not water down some of the real miscreants who lived in the White House. -- BookPage on Sex with Presidents Sexy, Dishy and Funny -- New York Times &#8220Addictively Good Dish -- Entertainment Weekly
