In time for the 50th anniversary of President Nixon’s significant trips to China and Russia, as well as his Watergate downfall, Dwight Chapin, Nixon’s aide and White House Deputy, offers an insider’s perspective on Nixon’s life and administration. From Nixon’s 1962 gubernatorial campaign to his transformative trips abroad and eventual decline, Chapin was a constant presence. He traveled with Nixon, assisted him, and learned from one of America’s most controversial presidents. As Bob Haldeman’s protégé, Chapin collaborated with Henry Kissinger on opening relations with China and ultimately faced prison for Watergate, despite having no involvement. This memoir recounts Chapin’s unique experiences with influential figures, including Kissinger, Haldeman, Choi En-lai, Pat Nixon, Spiro Agnew, J. Edgar Hoover, Frank Sinatra, Mark Felt, Roger Ailes, and John Dean. The narrative spans from Coretta Scott King to Elvis Presley, capturing the wonder of entering a closed Chinese society and the Oval Office. It concludes with new insights about the break-in that led to Nixon’s presidency's downfall, providing a compelling look at a pivotal era in American history.
