As others have mentioned, this is an interesting, albeit over-long look at the scandal magazines of the 1950s. There's some really fascinating information in here - the attempts to censor the mail is an interesting one - but it's delivered with just a few too many stories about the trials that took place due to stories.

It's a strange complaint - that is part of the history of the magazine, so therefore it's important to document, but that doesn't exactly make it engaging reading.

Ultimately, this one is for the curious readers out there.
