I found this about as exciting as watching paint dry.

For those seeking a little more information on the secret college societies formerly frequented by current President George W. Bush and other prominent politicians, this book gives an insider's account of Yale's prestigious Skull and Bones.

Parts of this book were a bit dry. Perhaps I'm just not enough "in the know" of politics.

** spoiler alert ** Don't get me wrong, it was interesting to learn so much in depth information about Skull and Bones, it was the delivery. I have read another Alexandra Robbins book, about sororities, and in comparison, this was a mish mash of smaller chunks that didn't always fit together. It was like several smaller articles got printed into book format without much thought to potential overlap, etc.
And the last section about Network was too Bush heavy for my taste.
