A Vast Conspiracy: The Real Story of the Sex Scandal That Nearly Brought Down a President Paperback - 2000
by Jeffrey Toobin
"A Vast Conspiracy", which topped bestseller lists around the country, is the definitive account of the most extraordinary public saga of the times: the Clinton sex scandals. Toobin takes an entirely fresh look at the story that began around Paula Jones's kitchen table in Arkansas, and ended on the Senate floor, with only the second vote on presidential impeachment in American history.
Summary
It was the most extraordinary public saga of our time, and Jeffrey Toobin gives us a definitive history of the ordeal that very nearly brought down a president. Here is the whole story of the Clinton sex scandals -- from its beginnings in a Little Rock hotel to its climax on the floor of the United States Senate with only the second vote on presidential removal in American history. Rich with Shakespearean characters and dramatic secrets, fueled with the high octane of a sensational legal thriller, and tinged by misguided, outlandish behavior that was played out at the very highest levels, Toobin's A Vast Conspiracy brings a dignity and integrity to this story that it has never before received.
The Clinton sex scandals will shape forever how we think about the signature issues of our day -- sex, privacy, civil rights, and, yes, cigars. A Vast Conspiracy will shape forever how we think about the Clinton scandals.
