“[Nixon] is always fascinating in Robenalt’s unvarnished portrait
of a flawed leader grappling with momentous events and heading,
ultimately, toward ruin.” - Kirkus Reviews
“As a reader you will quickly realize you are in the hands of not
only a good storyteller, but of a very sophisticated explainer, who
has a gifted knack for making the complex matters easily
understandable, and the inexplicable, comprehensible.” - John W.
Dean, from the Foreword
“A truly first-rate book… provides genuine illumination about all
of the issues [Robenalt] discusses. There is no reader who can’t
benefit from Robenalt’s research, presented in vivid and arresting
(and always well-documented) prose.” - Sanford Levinson, The
History Book Club
“In January 1973, Jim Robenalt takes a snapshot in time of a
whirlwind month during the Nixon era – zeroing in on five major
stories that converged in January of 1973 to change the arc of
American history. It’s classic Jim Robenalt: engaging,
interesting while providing fresh insights and new stories from
chapters of history you don’t know as well as you think you do.” -
Jonathan Karl, ABC News’ Chief White House Correspondent
“[The] book offers a keen reminder of the man's near-madness and
(be it conceded) political genius.” - Cleveland Plain Dealer
“[A] a revealing and easy-to-read book about a critical time in our
nation's history.” - Lincoln Journal Star
