Book Details


First Sentence

"As the thirty-seventh occupant of his office, Richard Nixon had settled into the White House under a new reality: Washington, D.C., had changed dramatically since World War II, as what had once been a relatively sleepy southern town conducting a part-time business had morphed into the all-consuming locus of federal power, directing the world's largest economy and driving foreign affairs the world over."
