Description
The full account of the Watergate scandal from the two Washington Post reporters who broke the story. This is "the work that brought down a presidency; perhaps the most influential piece of journalism in history" (Time, All-Time 100 Best Nonfiction Books). This is the book that changed America. Published just two months before President Nixon's resignation, All the President's Men revealed the full scope of the Watergate scandal and introduced for the first time the mysterious "Deep Throat." Beginning with the story of a simple burglary at Democratic headquarters and then continuing through headline after headline, Bernstein and Woodward deliver the stunning revelations and pieces in the Watergate puzzle that brought about Nixon's shocking downfall. Their explosive reports won a Pulitzer Prize for The Washington Post, toppled the president, and have since inspired generations of reporters. All the President's Men is a riveting detective story, capturing the exhilarating rush of the biggest presidential scandal in U.S. history as it unfolded in real time.
