What to expect
An aging judge about to step down. Aggressive prosecutors friendly with the judge. A disgraced president. A nation that had already made up its mind. The Watergate trials were a legal mess—and now, with the discovery of new documents that reveal shocking misconduct by prosecutors and judges alike, former Nixon staffer Geoff Shepard has a convincing case that the wrongdoing of these history-making trials was actually a bigger scandal than the Watergate scandal itself.
Critics Review
-
“Document by document, Shepard builds an ironclad case against the very prosecutors who drove Nixon from office.”
Hugh Hewitt, host of The Hugh Hewitt Show
-
“There are few books which I would call genuinely revelatory and indispensable. This is one of them. If you love America you must read this book.”
Ben Stein, actor and political commentator
-
“Shepard, who has been active in preserving and publicizing the policy legacy of the Nixon administration, argues that had Nixon not been driven from office, he would have been recognized as one of the nation’s greatest presidents.”
