The Senator from Central Casting: The Rise, Fall and Resurrection of Thomas Dodd
This is a conversational style book with a lot of pictures. It is a bit petty at times, including noting the collection of letters published by his son (Letters From Nuremberg, which I recall finding worthwhile) didn't really add anything to the historical record. Overall, fairly pleasant reading of someone who comes off as an unpleasant man. His children are spoken of positively, including Chris Dodd, who some say is a bit too PTB friendly.
