H.R. Haldeman

4.9/5 (10368 ratings)

Description:Nixon's late chief of staff chronicles his four years in the White House, offering insights on such events of the period as the bombing of Cambodia, the Kent State killings, Watergate & the personality of the president. 'It's probable H.R. Haldeman never told all he knew about Nixon's role, the Watergate cover-up or the Administration's abusive tactics against its political enemies,' wrote Newsweek upon Haldeman's death on 11/12/93. 'He takes [those] secrets-& whatever else he knew-to final judgment.' But not all he knew, nor all the secrets. Haldeman left behind a legacy few knew existed-four years, three months of diaries, which he wrote & dictated every day he was Chief of Staff. These never before published diaries offer a portrait of an era & a White House that haunt American history & politics. With frank observations, this record, written for Haldeman alone, reflects an unvarnished view of the triumphs & tragedy of those years. Here's a portrait of that period's more celebrated events: Cambodia bombings, Kent State killings, ground-breaking Russia & China trips, '72 campaign, Vietnam peace negotiations, White House power struggles, headaches caused by Henry Kissinger, Spiro Agnew's descent, &, especially, the Watergate scandal-detailed as they happened. Here's a fresh view of Nixon, by one who knew him best. Nixon, the biggest star of his own drama, is revealed intimately-shrewd, complex, petty, obsessive, sensitive, manipulative & self-absorbed. We learn of Nixon's double-cross of Sen. Howard Baker & his chance for a Supreme Court seat; Nixon's plan to photograph Ted Kennedy in compromising positions, then leak the photos; Nixon's attempts to get John Connally to replace Agnew on the '72 ticket; how Nixon attempted to get LBJ to fix the Senate Watergate investigation; & how Nixon's inner circle hunted for a fall guy as Watergate unfolded, & who some of the surprising candidates were...The Haldeman Diaries may be the most meticulously reported & eye-opening chronicle of those years.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
