Description: Secret Service Chief by U. E. Baughman 1963 Good condition, including dust jacket -- see all photos. This is not one of the many reprints issued later. This is the actual book from 1963! This has been deemed a culturally and historically important book. "The chief of America's famed crime-fighting agency tells the inside story of the war against con men and counterfeiters--and of his protection of Presidents Truman, Eisenhower and Kennedy, sometimes against their will." "Baughman was appointed to head the Secret Service by President Harry S. Truman shortly after the 1948 election. According to the book American Gunfight, by Stephen Hunter and John Bainbridge Jr. , Truman dismissed Baughman's predecessor James J. Maloney in part because he had dispatched most of Truman's Secret Service detail to New York to prepare to guard New York Governor Thomas E. Dewey. Dewey was widely expected to be elected president but was beaten by Truman in one of the greatest upsets in presidential election history. "
