Rendition Concering Books The Final Days

The Final Days is the classic, behind-the-scenes account of Richard Nixon's dramatic last months as president. Moment by moment, Bernstein and Woodward portray the taut, post-Watergate White House as Nixon, his family, his staff, and many members of Congress strained desperately to prevent his inevitable resignation. This brilliant book reveals the ordeal of Nixon's fall from office -- one of the gravest crises in presidential history.

Write Up Epithetical Books The Final Days

That bastard should have gone to jail.

A lengthy, highly intelligent and nuanced account (overly long, perhaps) of the legal and personal issues surrounding the final collapse and resignation of the Nixon Presidency. Marvelous portraits of the people involved, especially Kissinger, Haig, Buzhardt, St. Clair, Julie and David Eisenhower, and of Nixon himself. Cold-eyed and analytical, but also surprisingly sympathetic in part. Far better than the later Woodward books.

This is at times a very detailed account of the trial and downfall of President Richard Nixon. Who would have thought that a President needed so many lawyers on his staff? At the beginning the number of individuals involved is enormous. Nevertheless the tale becomes more compelling and tragic as we reach the inevitable culmination of Nixons downfall. In the biography I read of Nixon by Conrad Black he observes that Nixon was isolated and did not have enough contacts outside of the White House.

The saga of Watergate was about how a US President elected with a record margin of both popular and electoral votes, came to be nearly impeached for a cover up of a simple burglary, breaking and entering. The Final days by Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein was a chronological sequence of the events which happened during the ten months leading to President Richard Nixon's resignation on 9th August, 1974. The authors have meticulously documented the various events from the perspective of those who

This 5 star rating is for me, I don't think most of my Goodreads friends would enjoy this. It is fascinating, illuminating, and depressing at the same time. It is the sequel to All the President's Men, and continues the story from the admissions at the end of that book until Nixon resigns. This book is different, and simultaneously more and less engaging. The first book details the search of the reporters for the facts to solve the mysteries of the circumstances as well as their discoveries.

In a sense this book operates like a sequel to the wonderful "All the President's Men," and it showcases the chaos that the investigations of people like Woodward, Bernstein, and Special Prosecutor Archibald Cox brought into the Nixon White House. Yet, unlike Woodward and Bernstein's previous book, this one drops the veneer of the reporters' perspective and brings the reader into the innermost rooms of power in the last year of Nixon's reign. It's quite a scene.The story of the Watergate scandal

Truly remarkable book. Different, for obvious reasons, in scope to All The President's Men, but no less engaging. What makes this stand out even more is that over 40 years later, we have the ability to disengage and take into account Nixon's later years in their entirety, but this book put together in less than two years after the resignation. Yet, even though events were still so raw, Woodward and Bernstein have managed to elicit some sympathy for a truly complex individual. That, in itself,
