- Summary
- Based on in-depth interviews with President Nixon, his Secretary of State Henry Kissinger, and world leaders, Sulzberger argues that Nixon left a record of major accomplishments in foreign policy--the rapprochement with China, the ending of the Vietnam War, the arms negotiations leading to SALT I, and the Middle East armistice agreement that led to President Carter's Camp David agreement. In this revisionist study, the author presents a vivid portrait of a remarkably adept and farsighted statesman and concludes that he should be remembered for his contributions to American foreign policy, inspite of being overshadowed by the Watergate incident.
