Newspaper. Condición: Good. 112 Pages in four sections. Some page discoloration. This includes a section on The Nixon Years. By late 1973, Watergate escalated, costing Nixon much of his political support. On August 9, 1974, facing almost certain impeachment and removal from office, he became the first American president to resign. After his resignation, he was issued a pardon by his successor, Gerald Ford. In retirement, Nixon wrote his memoirs and nine other books and undertook foreign trips, rehabilitating his image into that of an elder statesman and leading expert on foreign affairs. Nixon's resignation was the culmination of what he referred to in his speech as the "long and difficult period of Watergate", a 1970s federal political scandal stemming from the break-in of the Democratic National Committee (DNC) headquarters at the Watergate Office Building by five men during the 1972 presidential election and the Nixon administration's subsequent attempts to cover up its involvement in the crime. Nixon ultimately lost much of his popular and political support as a result of Watergate. At the time of his resignation, Nixon faced almost certain impeachment and removal from office. Nixon said he was resigning because "I have concluded that because of the Watergate matter I might not have the support of the Congress that I would consider necessary to back the very difficult decisions and carry out the duties of this office in the way the interests of the nation would require". Nixon also stated his hope that, by resigning, "I will have hastened the start of that process of healing which is so desperately needed in America." The Washington Post (also known as the Post and, informally, WaPo) is an American daily newspaper published in Washington, D.C. It is the most-widely circulated newspaper within the Washington metropolitan area,and has a large national audience. Daily broadsheet editions are printed for D.C., Maryland, and Virginia. The newspaper has won 69 Pulitzer Prizes, the second-most of any publication (after The New York Times). Post journalists have also received 18 Nieman Fellowships and 368 White House News Photographers Association awards.[citation needed] The paper is well known for its political reporting and is one of the few remaining American newspapers to operate foreign bureaus. The Post was founded in 1877. In its early years, it went through several owners and struggled financially and editorially. Financier Eugene Meyer purchased it out of bankruptcy in 1933 and revived its health and reputation, work continued by his successors Phil and Katherine Graham, who bought out several rival publications. The Post's 1971 printing of the Pentagon Papers helped spur opposition to the Vietnam War. Subsequently, in the best-known episode in the newspaper's history, reporters Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein led the American press's investigation into what became known as the Watergate scandal, which resulted in the 1974 resignation of president Richard Nixon.

Post Card. Condición: Good. Format is approximately 5.5 inches by 3.5 inches. Image is black and white (with some fading) of a group of mounted individuals, reviewing a large body of troops in the background. The caption reads President Taft, Colonel Ross & Aides. High School Cadet Review April 20th 1909. We see the group form the back, facing the cadets. There is a text notation near the lower left corner that states Copyright 1909 by Barr-Farnham P.P.C. Co. The reverse has Post Card in large letters on the top. Under Card are the words Address Only. Under Post is the word Correspondence. On the left side is the statement Barr-Farnham Photo P. C. Co. Washington, D.C. RARE. Colonel Burton R. Ross, (1845-1913) was a military instructor of the High School Cadet Regiment for 26 years . Col. Ross was for many years connected with the District of Columbia National Guard. He was at one time Lieutenant Colonel of the First Regiment. The event was connected with the visit of the Philippine Constabulary Band to Washington. President Taft had a significant history with the Philippines in the aftermath of the Spanish-American War. The High School cadets had planned to participate in the Inaugural Parade in March but the Board of Education withdrew them due to lack of overcoats. The High School cadets approached the Philippine Constabulary Band and a joint parade was arranged. President Taft attended and complemented the cadets. Col. Ross was injured when his horse slipped and he was thrown to the ground. Press reported that approximately 10,000 watch the parade go from Market Place to 17th Street. Much of the background information on this post card was derived from excepts found on-line from Instruments of Empire: Filipino Musicians, Black Soldiers, and Military Band Music during US Colonization of the Philippines by Mary Talusan, Univ. Press of Mississippi, One of the most popular musical acts in the early 1900s was a band of "little brown men," Filipino musicians led by an African American conductor playing European and American music. The Philippine Constabulary Band and Lt. Walter H. Loving entertained thousands in concert halls and world's fairs, held a place of honor in William Howard Taft's presidential parade, and garnered praise by bandmaster John Philip Sousaâ"all the while facing beliefs and policies that Filipinos and African Americans were "uncivilized." Author Mary Talusan draws on hundreds of newspaper accounts and exclusive interviews with band members and their descendants to compose the story from the band's own voices. The spectacle of the band, its performance and promotion, emphasized a racial stereotype of Filipinos as "natural musicians" and the beneficiaries of benevolent assimilation and colonial tutelage.
