well-written and "biased". Reality has a liberal slant. Well-researched but not an in-depth consciousness altering tome. Oh, also triggering and depressing as hell but that's not the author's fault.

And as the book title indicates, he also tries to make the point that in many cases, attacks on the President are personal rather than policy driven, and often distort the facts.
