‎Confessions of an Ex-Secret Service Agent: The Marty Venker Story‎

‎Donald I Fine 1988. Book. Fine. Hardcover. 8vo - over 7�" - 9�" tall. A photo of this book is available. NO remainder marks or price clippings. Price inside dustcover: $17.95. Number line:10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1. Tight spine clean pages. 298 pages. NO writing marks or tears inside book. Publishers Weekly: A Secret Service agent from 1971 to 1981 Venker helped guard presidents Nixon Ford Carter and Reagan. This anecdotal account is continuously entertaining and occasionally reveals a bit of the presidential character Nixon trying to be one of the fellas Carter treating his protectors ``like maggots''. Venker wants us to know that these four gents put their pants on one leg at a time same as he does. As for visiting dignitaries he sometimes protected they were all jerks or weirdos he contends: Anastasio Somoza was both. Venker makes one serious point: that presidents need lots of protection. Among potential assassins he checked out were a boy of eight and a man who had been incarcerated since 1954 for shooting up the House of Representatives and plans to attack the president on the day of his release even though he doesn't know who it will be. As New York Post journalist Rush presents him Venker is definitely not your typical Secret Service man. The job eventually became such a burden that he quit to become a stripper and ``party terrorist'' getting banned from nightclubs was the goal and finally found a niche for himself spinning records as a nightclub disc jockey in New York.

‎L'affaire Yann Piat. Retour sur une manipulation.‎

‎Editions Privé, 2006 in-8°, 332 pp, broché, couv. illustrée, bon état‎

‎Octobre 1997. Un journaliste, Jean-Michel Verne, se trouve au cœur d'un scandale politico-judiciaire sans précédent dans l'histoire de la Ve République. La parution d'un livre co-écrit avec son confrère du Canard enchaîné, André Rougeot (L'Affaire Yann Piat), sur l'assassinat de la députée Yann Piat et le trouble suicide des frères Saincené en 1994, déchaîne les passions, provoquant la censure du livre et la condamnation des auteurs pour diffamation. On reproche à ces derniers d'avoir mis en cause sous couvert de pseudonymes - rapidement éventés - deux anciens ministres, Jean-Claude Gaudin et François Léotard. Neuf ans après les faits, Jean-Michel Verne a choisi de revenir sur le dossier Piat, qu'il estime toujours porteur de mystères. Mais ce récit est avant tout celui d'une tragédie éditoriale. Jean-Michel Verne révèle pour la première fois les secrets de l'ouvrage par lequel le scandale est arrivé: le rôle décisif du Canard enchaîné et les dessous de ces semaines de braise dans les bureaux capitonnés des éditions Flammarion. Ce livre, c'est aussi l'histoire d'un journaliste d'investigation pris au piège. Mais dans quel piège ? Celui d'une affaire d'État ou celui d'une manipulation visant politiques et journalistes ? Et puis au fait, qui a fait assassiner Yann Piat ?‎
