“Fascinating, macabre, mordant, melancholy, frightening."Īn extraordinary account.One can’t emphasize too vigorously that to have read the excerpts that have appeared is not to have read The Final Days at all.Intro Acknowledgments Foreword Authors' Note Cast of Characters Chronology Part 1 Chapter One Chapter Two Chapter Three Chapter Four Chapter Five Chapter Six Chapter Seven Chapter Eight Chapter Nine Chapter Ten Chapter Eleven Chapter Twelve Chapter Thirteen Chapter Fourteen Chapter Fifteen Chapter Sixteen Chapter Seventeen Chapter Eighteen Chapter Nineteen Chapter Twenty Part 2 Wednesday, July 24 Thursday, July 25 Friday, July 26 Saturday, July 27 Sunday, July 28 Monday, July 29 Tuesday, July 30 Wednesday, July 31 Thursday, August 1 Friday, August 2 The Final Days is the classic, behind-the-scenes account of Richard Nixon's dramatic last months as president. The book also gives substance to the stories we tried to tell while Nixon was still in office, stories so incredible that few people believed us.” “ The Final Days should be read soberly by the American people as a warning that they must chose their Presidents carefully. “ The Final Days provides the same fast-driving, singleminded reading excitement found in novels like The Godfather and Deliverance.” “An extraordinary work of reportage on the epic political story of our time.”
Nixon emerges as a tragic figure weathering a catastrophic ordeal…and weathering it with considerable courage and dignity." Here is the moment-by-moment account of Richard Nixon’s last days in public office - brought vividly alive with the same novelistic detail and dialogue that made All the President’s Men a number one national bestseller. The authors accomplish what no other reporters have: they take us inside the rooms where Nixon’s tapes were made and edited where the President, his lawyers and staff committed themselves to increasingly desperate tactics to save the Nixon presidency where the jealousies and rivalries of the President’s men were revealed where Nixon and his family debated the choices before them. This is a story you have not read in the newspapers. In an enthralling narrative that flashes from one private discussion to the next, Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein chronicle the previously unknown events leading to the resignation of President Richard M. The Final Days is a portrait of what went on behind the scenes during the gravest crisis in the history of the American presidency.
