Watergate

by Fred Emery (1994)

About this book

Now with a new afterword by the author, here is the definitive history of the Watergate scandal - based on the most recently released tapes, in-depth interviews with many of the participants, and hundreds of official and unofficial documents, including notes Haldeman omitted from his own published diaries. Emery's comprehensive coverage and penetrating insights clear up many uncertainties that may still remain about the scandal and the extent of Nixon's involvement. Authoritative and compelling, Watergate is essential reading for anyone who wants to understand fully this traumatizing episode in America's history that challenged the integrity of its political system.

Cover of Without honor

Without honor

Jerry Zeifman

Without Honor documents that the Judiciary Committee's investigation of Watergate was a sham in which present First Lady Hillary Clinton, recent White House counsel Bernard Nussbaum, and others who served on the impeachment inquiry staff abdicated their responsibilities to conduct a thorough investigation. Instead, the sham inquiry was structured by its leaders - all of whom were high Justice Department officials during the Kennedy administration - to avoid disclosure of the crimes of Camelot.
