It Didn't Start with Watergate

New York: The Dial Press, 1977. Third Printing. 438, footnotes, sources, index, small stains to fore-edge, small DJ edge tears, some DJ soiling. Inscribed by the author. The author argues that Watergate was little more than a media event. He looks at abuses of presidential power that go back to Franklin Roosevelt, and contends that the so-called smoking gun tape which forced Nixon out of office had nothing to do with Watergate. Condition: good, fair to good.
