Critics Review

”[Bob Woodward’s] Peril has competition!“–Brian Stelter, host of CNN’s “Reliable Sources”
“An important book…Kudos to him for reporting facts most in the corporate media don’t want to hear.”–Glenn Greenwald, Pulitzer Prize and George Polk Award-winning investigative journalist
“Ben is one of the most savvy political observers and most entertaining writers of his generation–the Hunter S. Thompson of the Trump era. His reporting is second-to-none and his writing sparkles with insights about the most important figures of our time.”–Garrett M. Graff, New York Times bestselling author of THE ONLY PLANE IN THE SKY
“Ben Schreckinger takes us deep into the Biden family story, separating myth from reality and showcasing a clan that’s rightly been called ‘the middle-class Kennedys.’ A must-read for those interested in the intersection between politics and personal history.”–Peter S. Canellos, author of THE GREAT DISSENTER: The Story of John Marshall Harlan, America’s Judicial Hero
“No journalist has spent more time in recent years studying and scrutinizing the Biden family than Ben Schreckinger. This book provides a singular look into the life of a president–and how it was shaped by the tragedies, scandals, and triumphs of his loyal Irish clan.”–Tim Alberta, bestselling author of AMERICAN CARNAGE
“Perhaps our youngest political reporter, also one of our most talented.”–Susan Glasser, co-author of THE MAN WHO RAN WASHINGTON
