โ€œItโ€™s the biggest Watergate bombshell to hit since the Nixon tapes in 1973โ€”with implications at once historic and relevant today.โ€ โ€”JAMES ROSEN, national bestselling author and legendary journalist

THESE JUDGES AND PROSECUTORS WERE DETERMINED TO GET NIXON“AT ALL COSTS.”

โ€œThe system worked”โ€”Carl Bernsteinโ€™s famous assessment of Watergateโ€”turns out to be completely wrong. Powerful new evidence reveals that in the prosecution of the most consequential scandal in American history, virtually nothing in the justice system worked as it should.

The roles of heroes and villains in Watergate were assigned before Marine One carried Richard Nixon into exile on August 9, 1974. But Geoff Shepardโ€™s patient and persistent research has uncovered shocking violations of ethical and legal standards by the “good guysโ€โ€”including Judge John Sirica, Archibald Cox, and Leon Jaworski.

The Watergate prosecutorsโ€™ own files reveal their collusion with the federal judges who tried their cases and heard their appealsโ€”professional misconduct so extensive that the pretense of a fair trial is now impossible to maintain.

Shepard documents that the Watergate Special Prosecution Force was an avenging army drawn from the ranks of Nixonโ€™s most ardent partisan foes. They had the good fortune to work with judges who shared their animus or who quickly developed a taste for the media adulation showered on those who lent their power to the anti-Nixon cause.

In the end, Nixonโ€™s fall was the result of the โ€œsmoking gunโ€ tape recording in which he appeared to order a cover-up of the Watergate burglary. Yet in a stunning revision of the historical record, Shepard shows that that conversation, which he himself was the first to transcribe, was taken out of context and completely misunderstoodโ€”an interpretation with which Nixonโ€™s nemesis John Dean concurs.

Crimes were committed, and an attempt was made to cover them up. But by trampling on the defendantsโ€™ right to due process, the Watergate prosecutors and judges denied the American people the assurance that justice was done and destroyed the historical reputation of an exceptionally accomplished president and administration. This book will challenge everything you think you know about the Watergate scandal.

From the Inside Flap

“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 1973–with 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’รฉtat 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.” –BEN STEIN, actor and political commentator
