It was a boy, and though he entered the world in a state of illegitimacy, a distinguished name was given to this newborn: Oscar Folsom Cleveland--the son of the future president of the United States-Grover Cleveland. The story of how the man who held the nation's highest office never took responsibility for his son is a thrilling one that reads like a romance novel -including allegations of rape, physical violence, and prostitution. The stunning lengths that Cleveland undertook to conceal what really happened the evening of his son's conception are truly astonishing-including forcing the unwed mother, Maria Halpin, into an insane asylum. 600 10 Cleveland, Grover,|d1837-1908. 600 17 Cleveland, Grover,|d1837-1908.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00009698 600 17 Cleveland, Grover.|0(DE-588c)4089517-8|2swd 650 0 Presidents|zUnited States|vBiography. 650 0 History. 650 0 Nonfiction. 650 7 HISTORY|zUnited States|xGeneral.|2bisacsh 650 7 Presidents.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01075723 650 07 Nichteheliches Kind.|0(DE-588c)4042062-0|2swd 651 7 United States.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01204155 655 7 Biography.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01423686 776 08 |iPrint version:|aLachman, Charles.|tSecret life.|dNew York : Skyhorse Pub., ©2011|z9781616082758 |w(OCoLC)668194657 914 frd00004087 994 C0|bCKE
