Synopsis

This book unearths new information on one of the most notorious political scandals of the 20th century: Watergate. Author Henry Petersen, former Assistant Attorney General in charge of the Criminal Division of the Department of Justice, provides a detailed account of his involvement in the investigation and prosecution of those responsible for the break-in of the Democratic National Committee headquarters. Through firsthand accounts and documentation, Petersen unravels the labyrinthine connections between the burglars, White House officials, and President Nixon himself. The book goes beyond the headlines, delving deep into the political motivations and cover-ups that fueled the scandal. It offers a unique perspective on the legal and political battles that ensued, providing a fresh understanding of the inner workings of power and the fragility of democracy in the face of corruption.
