“Book Descriptions: From one of America's most distinguished historians comes this classic analysis of Richard M. Nixon. By considering some of the president's opinions, Wills comes to the controversial conclusion that Nixon was actually a liberal. Both entertaining & essential, Nixon Agonistes captures a troubled leader & a struggling nation mired in a foolish Asian war, forfeiting the loyalty of its youth, puzzled by its own power & looking to its cautious president for confidence. In the end, Nixon Agonistes reaches far beyond its assessment of the 37th president to become an incisive & provocative analysis of the American political machine.
