Never before has a journalist penetrated the wall of secrecy
that surrounds the U.S. Secret Service. After conducting
exclusive interviews with more than one hundred current and
former Secret Service agents, bestselling author and
award-winning reporter Ronald Kessler reveals their secrets
for the first time. • George W. Bush’s daughters would try to lose their agents.
• Based on a psychic’s vision that a sniper would
assassinate President George H. W. Bush, the Secret Service
changed his motorcade route.
• To make the press think he came to work early, Jimmy
Carter would walk into the Oval Office at 5 a.m., then nod
off to sleep.
• Lyndon Johnson gave dangerous instructions to his
Secret Service agents and engaged in extensive philandering
at the White House.
