In this entertaining and eye-opening book, Eleanor Herman revisits some of the sex scandals that have rocked the nation's capital and shocked the public, while asking the provocative questions: does rampant adultery show a lack of character or the stamina needed to run the country? Or perhaps both? While Americans have judged their leaders' affairs harshly compared to other nations, did they mostly just hate being lied to? And do they now clearly care more about issues other than a politician’s sex life?

Fascinating Insights from history
Revisado: 06-20-22
Initially leery about whether to listen to this book, I found it helpful in understanding current social response to politicians’ flagrant sexual behaviors. Society has, apparently since the beginning of time, chosen to ignore powerful leaders’ sexual practices outside of marriage as at the least ‘acceptable’ and often ‘normal’ and to be ignored as not important to their public leadership work. These deeply rooted beliefs and almost pervasive practices continue to have a hold over American society. There seems to be now distinction between the who, what, when, where, or why’s of the sexual practices.

On the surface, the Victorian age is one of propriety, industry, prudishness and piety. But scratch the surface and you’ll find scandal, sadism, sex, madness, malice and murder. Presented by Stephen Fry, this series delves deep into a period of time we think we know, to discover an altogether darker reality. The stories we’re told offer a different perspective on an era which underwent massive social change. As education, trade, technology and culture blossomed, why was there an undercurrent of the ‘forbidden’ festering beneath Victorian society?

This story is mesmerizing, fun, informative and illustrative. The audio performance is brilliant, done in period language, tongue in cheek, and never underestimating the listener’s intelligence ! I listened over several
Road trips but never had a problem getting into the story because of the thoughtful segmenting/episoding. Thank ! I thoroughly enjoyed this production !!
