Essential Relic For One's Watergate Library
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
This little book is a must-have for anyone who joined the national Watergate fan club immediately after the scandal broke in the early 1970s. Maureen Dean's account, speckled delightfully with detailed descriptions of the clothing/accessories other Watergate women are wearing, is comically young-minded. Even so, its emanations form an illuminating penumbra (if that's possible) that reveals the spirit of the Nixon White House; a good example is the style of the fake-serious interoffice memo which John Dean submitted to Haldeman asking for time off to marry Mo.An excellent companion piece to this book is "Silent Coup," which adduces other, darker facets of John's and Mo's relationship. Read "Mo" first, while you're still in the mood for levity.
