Nixonland (2008), by Rick Perlstein.
Nixonland is an exceptionally readable biography of former President Richard Nixon. The life of Nixon is a story he himself deliberately created with tremendous energy, concentration, and perseverance. Many times Nixon fell into the abyss because of circumstances or his own actions, but he always managed to scramble up into the light again.
Perlstein convinces the reader that Nixon has made an indelible mark on American politics. His political actions generated ideological beliefs that still resonate today.
