Liz Smith says it best in her advance praise: "SEX, SCANDAL and sensationalism. Libel suits and humiliations. Idols with feet of clay. Think it's anything new? Not at all. Slip into the compulsively lurid and exhaustively researched pages of "'Mr. Confidential'" which tells the tale of publisher Robert Harrison and his magazine, "Confidential," That forerunner of celebrity dirt quite literally changed the face of entertainment journalism.
