Read the reviews on the book.

 

Kutler's book is a watershed event—the beginning of the passage of Watergate from the stuff of journalism and instant history to real history. (Thomas Oliphant - Boston Globe )

 

A big powerhouse of a book, one crackling with suspense and filled with insight into the origins, the unfolding, and the consequences of perhaps the gravest political and constitutional crisis in our history. (Michael E. Parrish - San Diego Union )

 

It is balance, breadth of vision, documentary research, historical context, and insight that Kutler provides—lucidly, gracefully, and far better than anyone before him. . . . This book should be regarded as the definitive reply to Nixon's attempts at rehabilitation. . . . [It] is about ethics, ends and means, and the dangers of an imperial presidency. . . . The republic owes Kutler a reward. It need not be elaborate: Americans need only to read him—and take his book seriously. (Leonard Bushkoff - Christian Science Monitor )
