Courage and hesitation

About this book

This book blends the talents of two of Washington's most astute and honored observers. Allen Drury and Fred Maroon each spent some three months exploring the corridors of power in the Nixon White House. They observed policy-making meetings and off-the-record interviews, official ceremonies and informal conversations. Promised free access and full co-operation, they met independently with nearly every important figure in the administration, recording the faces, voices and personalities behind the names in the headlines.
