In time for the 50th anniversary of President Nixon's epic trips to China and Russia, as well as his incredible Watergate downfall, the man who was at his side for a decade as his aide and White House Deputy takes readers inside the life and administration of Richard Nixon. From Richard Nixon's "You-won't-have-Nixon-to-kick-around-anymore" 1962 gubernatorial campaign through his world-changing trips to China and the Soviet Union and epic downfall, Dwight Chapin was by his side. As his personal aide and then Deputy Assistant in the White House Chapin was with him in his most private and most public moments. He traveled with him, assisted, advised, strategized, campaigned and learned from America's most controversial president. As Bob Haldeman's protege, Chapin worked with Henry Kissinger in opening China--then eventually went to prison for Watergate although he had no involvement in it. In this memoir, Chapin takes readers on an extraordinary historic journey; presenting an insider's view of America's most enigmatic President. Chapin will relate his memorable experiences with the people who shaped the future: Henry Kissinger, his close friend Bob Haldeman, Choi En-lai, Pat Nixon, the embittered Spiro Agnew, J. Edgar Hoover, Frank Sinatra, Mark "Deep Throat" Felt, young and ambitious Roger Ailes, and John Dean. It's a story that ranges from Coretta Scott King to Elvis Presley, from the wonder of entering a closed Chinese society to the Oval Office, and concludes with startling new insights and conclusions about the break-in that brought down Nixon's presidency.

A real informative book about the WaterGate scandal that led to Richard Nixon resigning the presidency as told by his appointments secretary Dwight Chapin. This is the other side of it, and it gives one a new perspective on what really went on. If you are a Nixon fan- as I was because he accomplished so much in his presidency- you will not fail to see how this all could have been avoided if Nixon had just gone in front of the cameras and told the American people he had nothing to do with it and was firing those who did. His accomplishments were so huge it would have been easy to believe him. Instead he was mislead by his scheming cutthroat attorney John Dean who cut a deal to save his own skin. One gets the opinion reading this book that they were really out to get Nixon no matter what he accomplished. Of course this side of the story is being told by his appointments secretary and may be a bit biased. You will have to decide, but one thing is clear, and that is a great presidency was wasted by a bunch of amateur burglars and criminals who instead of being loyal to their president brought him down.
