Howlin it's been quite a while so I'm going to tell you what I think the problem was, but please don't take this as 100% gospel.  None the less, I believe it to be fairly accurate.

There was a problem with a book he was supposed to have written.  I believe the issue was that Write hadn't even written the book, as the book was essentially empty pages, worthly notes or just a shody compilation of nothing.  Then boxes of these books were purchased under a thinly veiled effort to funnel money to the Senator.

Unions, supporters and others bought up boxes of books that were essentially worth nothing.

I didn't get to see one of these.  I'm not sure if the public ever did.  It wasn't something that was run through a bonified publisher or book store chain after they were put together.

Perhaps someone can fill in the blanks on this.  This is sketchy, but it's the best I can do.

Hillary got paid $8million in advance (in the window between November 2000 when she was elected and Jan 2001 when she was sworn in as senator). This is why she claims that the deal did not violate any Senate ethics, she didn't have ethics then.
