Discussion of “G-Man: J. Edgar Hoover and the Making of the American Century” by Beverly Gage (Parts 3 and 4)

A winner of the 2023 Pulitzer Prize for Biography, this new biography of J. Edgar Hoover draws from never-before-seen sources to create a groundbreaking portrait of a colossus who dominated half a century of American history and planted the seeds for much of today's conservative political landscape.

This is the second of a two-part book discussion. In this meeting we will discuss parts three (Power and Politics) and four (The War at Home) of the book.
