NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER * “Do we need still another Watergate book? The answer turns out to be yes—this one.” —The Washington Post * “Dazzling.” —The New York Times Book Review.
From the author of bestselling books comes the first definitive history of Watergate, exploring the full extent of the scandal through the politicians, investigators, journalists, and informants who made it the most influential political event of the modern age.
The story begins in 1971 with the publication of the Pentagon Papers, which reveal dishonesty regarding the American presence in Vietnam and provoke public outrage. President Richard Nixon, worried about the possibility of his administration being exposed, convenes his closest aides and gives them indirect instructions to win “at all costs.” A series of political contradictions follow, with the infamous June break-in attracting the attention of journalists, Congressional investigators, and a legendary figure who would keep his identity secret under the pseudonym “Deep Throat.”
Using new public documents, transcripts, and revelations, Graff tells each twist with remarkable detail and dramatic flow, bringing readers behind the scenes of Washington, into crowded offices and the packed halls of Congress, during one of the darkest chapters in American history.
