From the late 1940s to the mid-1970s, Nixon was a polarizing figure in American politics, admired for his intelligence, savvy, and strategic skill, and reviled for his shady manner and cutthroat tactics. In deft, masterful prose, Black separates the good in Nixonâhis foreign initiatives, some of his domestic policies, and his firm political handâfrom the sinister, with his questionable methods and the collection of excesses and offenses associated with the Watergate scandal. Black argues that the hounding of Nixon from office was partly political retribution from a lifetime of enemies and Nixonâs misplaced loyalty to unworthy subordinates, and not clearly the consequence of crimes in which he participated.
