The book is not based on any primary sources.
Interesting that the book says "both of his parents were negroes."  
It also says his "Negro ancestry has been squelched by the government
and his immediate family members" and that it may have been the cause of
his death.

I find this hard to believe...

For a book on Warren G. Harding's black ancestry, read "Warren G.
Harding U.S. President 29 Death by Blackness."  Apparently, as Harding
was want to  say, 
one of his relatives "jumped the fence."
