The full, sensational story, as it has never been told before. The publication of Silent Coup and subsequent lawsuits in America have led to a re-examination of the scandal that brought down the President. Key figures come forward to share their findings and the rich lode of Nixon staff papers at the National Archive is yielding pure gold."

  • "[v.1] President Nixon's men were caught red-handed in the Democrat's Watergate offices exposure threatened, but a massive cover-up seemed to succeed. [v.2] The cover-up begins to crumble when John Dean, the designated fall-guy, turns stool pigeon. The existence of the Oval Office Tapes is revealed. Nixon tries to strong-arm FBI into shutting down the Special Prosecutor's office. And a tarnished vice-president is forced to resign. Relive history in the words of the perpetrators and prosecutors themselves. [v.3] Nixon's next, hand-picked Special Prosecutor uncovers evidence so damning that the President's staunches supporters begin to defect. The House Judiciary Committee raises the spector of impeachment and slowly tightens the noose. A once-proud President Nixon resigns in disgrace. Relieved history in the words of the perpetrators and prosecutors themselves."
