So what are the best books/documentaries/internet sources etc on Huey Long? I'm interested in learning about the history of the guy; I've only used Wikipedia to read up about the guy, but even as dry as Wikipedia is, it makes Long seem like a fascinating character. What are the best ways to learn about him?
 
There was a fairly interesting biographical film on Long in which he is portrayed by John Goodman. There are liberties taken, but it's generally a fair look.

Also, if you're interested in conspiracies, there is an episode of Unsolved Mysteries floating around that puts forward the theory that Long may have been accidentally killed by his over zealous body guards. Either way, the episode does provide biographical information on Long.

I read the book Kingfish and went to the site Huey-Long.com. The website is run by his supporters so is an bit rosy viewed however but I find it interesting to read the accounts of people affected by his policies.
