Hardcover. Condición: Fine. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Near Fine. 1st Edition. This book is a portrait of what went on behind the scenes during the gravest crisis in the history of the American presidency. In an enthralling narrative that flashes from one private discussion to the next, Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein chronicle the previously unknown events leading to the resignation of President Richard M. Nixon. This is a story you have not read in the newspapers. The book is a drama about Washington, D.C.--from the President, his wife, daughters and sons-in-law, to his senior staff, his speech writers and his servants, to the Cabinet, the Vice-President's office, the House Judiciary Committee, the grand jurors, the judges and the Justices of the Supreme Court. The authors accomplish what no other reports have: they take us inside the rooms where Nixon's tapes were made and edited, where the President, his lawyers, and staff committed themselves to increasingly desperate tactics to save the Nixon presidency; where the jealousies and rivalries of the President's men were revealed, where Nixon and his family debated the choices before them. Here is the moment-by-moment account of Richard Nixon's last days in public office. With the kind of investigative journalism that won their newspaper the Pulitzer Prize for its Watergate coverage (for "The Final Days", Woodward and Bernstein interviewed nearly 400 persons), the authors portray the participants in this extraordinary drama as only those backstage were able to observe them. The portrait that emerges of Nixon, the Nixon family, Kissinger, Haig, Ziegler, the lawyers--and of a presidency in disarray--will be discussed for years to come. The book jacket shows minimal wear. The book pages are clean and free of any markings or highlighting. The binding is tight. Irving Perkins, Design; Robert Anthony, Jacket Design; David Halstead (ilustrador).…
