Summary The transcripts of tapes made during the Nixon administration "offer a spellbinding portrait of raw power and a Shakespearean depiction of a king and his court. Never have the personalities of Haldeman, Ehrlichman, Colson, Haig, Kissinger, Dean, and Mitchell been so vividly captured with the spoken word. And never has an American president offered such a revealing record of his darkest self."--Jacket.
