Carol Leonnig

@myronjclifton I still want to read Zero Fail, Carol Leonnig's history of the Secret Service. I remember how outraged people were after JFK's assassination when it was revealed SS had been out partying late Thursday night before he was murdered.

Jim Brosnan

@2Strong2Silence Excellent point. Also, Jim Brosnan, a pitcher for St. Louis, wrote a book in early 60's called The Long Season, where he recounts widespread distribution of "greenies" in the locker room. I bought it in a used bookstore in the 60's & it remains one of my favorite baseball books.
