From the Nov. 13, 1988, Heard on the Hill:

Tome on the range. Just as the controversy over Speaker Jim Wright’s last book, Reflections of a Public Man, seems to be dying down, the literary lawmaker is writing a new one, appropriately titled Mr. Speaker. The book is being co-authored by George Mair, Wright’s busy-beaver press secretary. Mair, the famed author of The Sex-Book Digest: A Peek Between the Cover of 113 of the Most Erotic, Exotic and Edifying Sex Books, is typing away on a tome of his own to be called The Rules of Love, illustrated by Scott Bennett. Both works have yet to find a publisher.
