Tapping into the wealth of recently declassified archives, Robhert Dallek uncovers fascinating details about Nixon and Kissinger¡¦s tumultuous personal relationship and the extent to which they struggled to outdo each other in the reach for achievements in foreign affairs. Dallek also brilliantly analyzes their dealings with power brokers at home and abroad, while recognizing how both men were continually plotting to distract the American public¡¦s attention from the growing scandal of Watergate. With unprecedented detail, Dallek reveals Nixon¡¦s erratic behavior during Watergate and the extent to which Kissinger was complicit in trying to help Nixon use national security to prevent his impeachment or resignation.
