Description
The National Security Archive, a research institute in Washington, published this briefing book in 2021 for the fiftieth anniversary season of Watergate. Luke A. Nichter assembled six findings from declassified Nixon White House tapes, memos, diaries, and FBI records. The documents are United States government records, open to all.
One item traces a call in which Charles Colson spoke of sticking it to Washington. Another follows the note by burglar James McCord that cracked the cover-up open. Each finding rests on primary documents printed with the briefing. The set shows how much of Watergate was still hiding in the files fifty years on.
