Marilyn: The Last Take

Barham & Brown did a superb job of producing a book on the iconic Marilyn Monroe that borders on scholarly work. They uncovered thousands of pages of documents, photographs, declassified FBI documents (under the FIA), interviews, film footage and wiretap-tapes made at the order of the late J. Edgar

Hoover, FBI Director under President Kennedy. A serious fan will find much evidence to support the theory that Ms. Monroe was murdered in an effort to "hush her up." It seems she had been privy to too much high-level information. Although they've laid out a solid case for the real events of the night of her death, some of the secrets of what really happened to Marilyn went with her to the grave.

Very good book is based on new papers and other items that have just come to light.

I have to admit, as a 20-ish year-old young man, I was drawn to this book by the cover. It has collected a lot of dust since those happy days.
