I am very well educated and reasonably intelligent, but Gore Vidal always made me feel STUPID! He was quite the guy, though I'd like to hear Carter's side of that story described above. Given how poorly even many Democrats have treated Carter, I do not discount there being some bias going on there.

That said, it sounds like a good read. So glad that many out of print books (not that this one is...) are available on Kindle now.
