THIS IS THE BOOK THAT

CHANGED AMERICA

Beginning with the story of a simple burglary at Democratic headquarters and then continuing with headline after headline, Bernstein and Woodward kept the tale of conspiracy and the trail of dirty tricks coming -- delivering the stunning revelations and pieces in the Watergate puzzle that brought about Nixon's scandalous downfall. Their explosive reports won a Pulitzer Prize for The Washington Post and toppled the President.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fascinating and compelling. 14 Mar 2002

Format:Paperback
I could not put this book down - one of the best detective stories I have ever read, based on actual events - outstanding. As a british reader who wasn't even born when these events took place, I found this book absolutely riveting and incredibly informative, and very well written considering the volume of detail it contains. Sincere thanks to the two authors for all their hard work to bring out the facts.

This book by the reporters who were in the midst of the Watergate scandal for quite a while, takes the reporter from the initial, seemingly meanless break in at Watergate, to the resignation of a president. I would recommend this book to someone who wants to know the details of Watergate, but this book is not "easy reading." The myriad of names can sometimes be confusing, but the end product is a great non-fiction mystery story. Very well written.

I recommend this book to everyone.

You've probably seen the film but this book tells the full story of the 'buggers at the Watergate' including ex-CIA man E Howard Hunt and ex-FBI nutcase G Gordon Liddy. It would be funny if it wasn't so serious - it's probably the worst case of abuse of the democratic process ever recorded.

A paranoid Richard 'Tricky Dickie' Nixon sends 'The Plumbers' out to 'plug the leaks', only to be found out by two dedicated journalists at The Washington Post' who simply won't leave the story to die (aided by the still anonymous 'Deep Throat').

Unfortunately the tale ends with Nixon's resignation from office rather than his trip to St Quentin but this shouldn't spoil your enjoyment. READ IT.
