Not one dime from me… however, our library did spring for 25 electronic licenses + 7 for the audio book…

From google AI
The movement was started by Sid Kramer and Esther Flanigan, owners of the Remarkable Book Shop in Westport, Connecticut. They, along with the "Committee to Boycott Nixon's Memoirs," famously sold T-shirts bearing the slogan.


As to libraries buying books by crooks ( looking right at Haberman) IMO it is a necessary evil. They will provide guidance to future historians on the American Experience.

While questions may exist about the authors’ character, it has not entirely tarnished the entertainment value of the writing… which is taken w/ a liberal amount of salt…

It’s all fiction until proven otherwise…IMHO
