Nixon
Richard Nixon is widely regarded as one of America's least successful presidents, yet his presidency deserves to be remembered for more than just its end. He unmasked one of America's greatest traitors as a congressman, faced down violent mobs as vice president, and helped the nation heal after the narrow and controversial election of 1960. As president, he brought China back into the global community and did more than any of his predecessors to calm the rising tensions of the Cold War. He was an environmental pioneer and even proposed a health insurance expansion not so different from the one later passed by Barack Obama.
This new biography seeks to reassess Nixon's legacy, presenting his successes alongside his failures, his occasional nobility alongside his fatal flaws. Though Nixon may have fallen short of the greatness he sought, there were moments when he almost reached it--moments that continue to shape our present nation.
"You must pursue this investigation of Watergate even if it leads to the president. I'm innocent. You've got to believe I'm innocent. If you don't, take my job." - Richard Nixon
