Must Read but be patient!

Reviewed in the United States on October 31, 2014

Verified Purchase

Excellent in-depth study and presentation. I remember living through Watergate crisis and following day-to-day developments in the press and on television but had not read a study of the whole thing; had many questions, now mostly answered. Still nags, how did anyone like Nixon ever get to be President? And something like 70 members of his Administration pled guilty or were convicted of crimes. Incredible. Ford's pardon is made understandable if still not acceptable without Nixon admitting guilt, and Ford paid heavy price for his giving the pardon.
This is a very important book to read on what American historians and presidential biographers rate as third greatest Constitutional crisis, after Civil War and the Great Depression.

I lived through Watergate

Reviewed in the United States on October 2, 2013

I remember the Watergate hearings on television. That was in the 1970s. But I found them confusing because I did not fully understand. Well this book explains and explains thoroughly. Excellent recount of the issue that made the times what they were.

Comprehensive and Detailed

Reviewed in the United States on January 9, 2015

Verified Purchase

Wow! Great history and detail, sometimes a bit too much. About a third of the way through I lost interest and had to put it down. Came back to it and the last half of the book zoomed by very quickly. Learned many new things about this era in American politics and how events shaped things that still go on today. You can't go wrong in reading this but you have to have some perseverance to get thru the details.

A valuable window on Watergate

Reviewed in the United States on August 6, 2014

This is a thorough, well-written account of the demise of the Nixon Administration. It is an important contribution to the historical record of the U.S. Government in the years of the Nixon Presidency.

excellent, but very long and dry to read. 4 stars because only a history enthusiast would probably wade through it, but if you are so inclined for detail this book is excellent. I will be using it for reference as n

Good but too much detail

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on July 6, 2012

Verified Purchase

This is an immense book on Richard Nixon and Watergate from a writer that no reader could fail to admire and respect for this detailed account of the political life and problems associated with this complex and difficult man. The book has been described elsewhere as a 'powerhouse of a book' a towering effort and a watershed event. And whilst it is all of these things its detailed account nearly killed it off for me. As a British reader of an American scandal, my lack of knowledge of the US political system did not help. The first 300 pages set the scene well with excellent chapters on Nixon's first administration, the burglary and the cover-up. Yet much of what followed was not easy to follow and with the various committees, special Prosecutors, the Senate Committee, the Judiciary Committee and the Supreme Court all seemingly covering the same ground, it was a bit like watching the same news programme over and over again. An index of some of the 'main players' with pen pictures might have helped as would more and better photographs of the participants, assuming there still are any. And finally, what happened to Ehrlichmann, Haldeman & Dean? Their trials were either omitted or glossed over with not much on their views on the treatment they received from either Nixon or the courts.
So, a really good book especially if you are a student of modern US political history but for general interest in either Nixon or Watergate it contained too much detail. Worth reading, even so, but for a Brit reading my first book on either subject, I should have guessed at the size of it that it would not be an easy read.

The condotion of the book was very bad. NOT 'VERY GOOD'!! You should seriously reconsider your grading system...

Reviewed in Germany on January 31, 2014

Many, many pages were folded on purpose, vertically, over the whole page. Lots of writing in the book.

I am going to throw it away and buy a proper copy somewhere.

Very bad experience!!
