In The Nixon Defense, former White House Counsel John W. Dean, one of the last major surviving figures of Watergate and the chief whistleblower that brought down Nixon’s presidency, draws on his own transcripts of nearly a thousand conversations, a raft of Nixon’s secretly recorded information, and more than 150,000 pages of documents in the National Archives and the Nixon Library to tell the full story of President Nixon’s involvement in Watergate. Dean is the New York Times bestselling author of Blind Ambition, Broken Government, Conservatives Without Conscience, and Worse Than Watergate. In 2006, he testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee investigating George W. Bush’s NSA warrantless wiretap program.
