VIRTUE On Fresh Air

The media appetite for political scandals, even ten-year-old ones, continues unabated.

Last night on NPR’s Fresh Air, Terry Gross interviewed Ken Gormley, whose book, The Death of American Virtue, recounts the Clinton impeachment (listen here). Gormley also appeared on the Today Show.

The book rose to #52 on Amazon, but library holds are light in most places.

It has also been reviewed widely in newspapers, including the following.

Wall Street Journal — a scrupulously even-handed and exhaustively reported book

New York Times — so exhaustive that some of it raises doubts about the value of Mr. Gormley’s exertions…. But by and large Mr. Gormley has packed his narrative with intense, overdue and definitive testimony about the still-surprising investigation of Mr. Clinton’s activities spearheaded by Kenneth W. Starr.
