Publisher’s Summary
The Teapot Dome scandal of the early 1920s was all about oil - hundreds of millions of dollars’ worth of petroleum. When the scandal finally broke, the consequences were tremendous. President Harding’s legacy was forever tarnished, while “Oil Cabinet” member Albert Fall was forced to resign and was imprisoned for a year. Others implicated in the affair suffered prison terms, commitment to mental hospitals, suicide, and even murder. The Republican Party and the oil-company CEOs scrambled to cover their tracks and were mostly successful. Key documents mysteriously disappeared; important witnesses suffered sudden losses of memory. Though a special investigation was authorized, the scope of the wrongdoing was contained by administration stonewalling. But newly surfaced information indicates that the scandal was even bigger than originally thought.

Now this sounds good. Awesome upload. Thank you.

Fantastic! I listened to this some 8 or so years ago. Great book, disheartening corruption in the WH though…
I am *so* glad you shared this! My hard drive went to the big computer in the sky and I lost hundreds of books and so on. I looked all over the ‘net for this for several years with no luck - including a look several weeks ago because I wanted to give it another listen.
Thank you! :)

“Doctor Who” category?
Is that a joke or a mistake?
Please correct this.

Another torrent that’s not downloading properly. I’m showing 0 of 3 seeds, 32 of 127 peers currently connected, my upload ratio is currently 6.888% and a 69.6% availability that’s been stuck there for the last 8 hours.
Please reseed or force reseed?

Gweilo, this is not the first time this uploader has started dumping random books in the Doctor Who section, nor is it the first time he’s been called out about it. It’s apparently how he gets his kicks.

Gweilo, I wish you would STFU. Serial complainer.
