From Richard Nixon's "You-won't-have-Nixon-to-kick-around-anymore" 1962 gubernatorial campaign through his world-changing trips to China and the Soviet Union and epic downfall, Dwight Chapin was by his side. As his personal aide and then Deputy Assistant in the White House Chapin was with him in his most private and most public moments. He traveled with him, assisted, advised, strategized, campaigned and learned from America's most controversial president. As Bob Haldeman's protege, Chapin worked with Henry Kissinger in opening China--then eventually went to prison for Watergate although he had no involvement in it. In this memoir, Chapin takes readers on an extraordinary historic journey; presenting an insider's view of America's most enigmatic President. Chapin will relate his memorable experiences with the people who shaped the future: Henry Kissinger, his close friend Bob Haldeman, Choi En-lai, Pat Nixon, the embittered Spiro Agnew, J. Edgar Hoover, Frank Sinatra, Mark "Deep Throat" Felt, young and ambitious Roger Ailes, and John Dean. It's a story that ranges from Coretta Scott King to Elvis Presley, from the wonder of entering a closed Chinese society to the Oval Office, and concludes with startling new insights and conclusions about the break-in that brought down Nixon's presidency. 500 $a Includes index. 600 10 $a Chapin, Dwight L. $q (Dwight Lee), $d 1940- 600 10 $a Nixon, Richard M. $q (Richard Milhous), $d 1913-1994 $x Friends and associates. 650 0 $a Presidents $z United States $x Staff $v Biography. 651 0 $a United States $x Politics and government $y 1969-1974. 650 0 $a Watergate Affair, 1972-1974. 655 7 $a Autobiographies. $2 lcgft 941 $a 7 952 $l GOPG641 $d 20240409041910.0 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20231010025641.0 952 $l FXPH314 $d 20230502011827.0 952 $l XXPH787 $d 20220514010840.0 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20220405014013.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20220302013413.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20220217010942.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=72B99FEC8FBF11ECBA4AA6A62FECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
