Description

"A revealing selection . . . [a] heroic service." -- New York Times Book Review "Endlessly fascinating . . . Essential for students of late-twentieth-century history and the American presidency." -- Kirkus Reviews "[A] monumental effort . . . Astonishing." -- Austin American-Statesman Between 1971 and 1973, President Richard Nixon's voice-activated tape recorders captured 3,700 hours of conversations. Douglas Brinkley and Luke Nichter's intrepid two-volume transcription and annotation of the highlights of this essential archive provides an unprecedented and fascinating window into the inner workings of a momentous presidency. The Nixon Tapes: 1973 tells the concluding chapter of the story, the final year of taping, covering such events as the Vietnam cease-fire, the Wounded Knee standoff, and, of course, the Watergate investigation. Once again, there are revelations on every page. With Nixon's landslide 1972 reelection victory receding into the background and the scandal that would scuttle the administration looming, The Nixon Tapes: 1973 reveals the inside story of the tragedy that followed the triumph. "A priceless . . . historical document . . . Readers will enjoy the editors' insightful introductions." -- Publishers Weekly
