Summary:
"President
Nixon
's voice-activated taping system captured every word spoken in the Oval Office, Cabinet Room, and other key locations in the White House, and at Camp David--3,700 hours of recordings--between February 16, 1971 and January 30, 1973. Yet less than 5 percent of those conversations have ever been transcribed and published. Now, thanks to professor Luke Nichter's massive effort to digitize and transcribe the
tapes
, the world can finally read an unprecedented account of one of the most important and controversial presidencies in U.S. history. The
Nixon
Tapes
offers a selection of fascinating scenes from the year
Nixon
opened relations with China, negotiated the SALT I arms agreement with the Soviet Union, and won a landslide reelection victory. All the while, the growing shadow of Watergate and
Nixon
's political downfall crept ever closer. President Richard
Nixon
uncensored, unfiltered, and in his own words -- a glimpse into a flawed president's hubris, paranoia, and political genius"-- Provided by publisher.
