An aging judge about to step down. Aggressive prosecutors friendly with the judge. A disgraced president. A nation that had already made up its mind. The Watergate trials were a legal messand now, with the discovery of new documents that reveal shocking misconduct by prosecutors and judges alike, former Nixon staffer Geoff Shepard has a convincing case that the wrongdoing of these history-making trials was actually a bigger scandal than the Watergate scandal itself.
"Document by document, Shepard builds an ironclad case against the very prosecutors who drove Nixon from office."
HUGH HEWITT, host of The Hugh Hewitt Show
"The Real Watergate Scandal is one of the most valuable books ever published on the Nixon presidency. Geoff Shepard's intrepid archival research has unearthed documents that expose, for the first time, evidence of deeply disturbing collusion between the Watergate special prosecutors and the presiding judge in the Watergate criminal trials. It's the biggest Watergate bombshell to hit since the Nixon tapes in 1973with implications at once historic and relevant today."
JAMES ROSEN, Fox News chief Washington correspondent and author of The Strong Man: John Mitchell and the Secrets of Watergate
"Watergate was a coup d'etat that overturned the largest landslide in American history and destroyed a president who had humiliated the liberal establishment. Geoff Shepard's investigative work has unearthed buried elements of the plot that brought down the thirty-seventh president."
PATRICK J. BUCHANAN, author of The Greatest Comeback: How Richard Nixon Rose from Defeat to Create the New Majority
"There are few books which I would call genuinely revelatory and indispensable. This is one of them. If you love America you must read this book."
