Charlatan

I'm about 70% of the way through Charlatan by Pope Brock, a non-fiction book that tells the astonishing story of a dangerous medical quack in the depression era who transcends medical quackery to infiltrate entertainment, politics, and more. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1851568.Charlatan I found it through the excellent Reply All episode on the same subject. https://gimletmedia.com/episode/86-man-of-the-people/ The episode is great, but it naturally has to leave out a lot of details and subplots that really come to life in the book. I would gladly read anything else written by Pope Brock. I think his writing is amazing.
