Fascinating!
Full disclosure: I'm a Clinton Democrat. But this biography was fascinating. Nixon did a lot of good and a lot of bad over the course of a long and complicated political career. Don't let the running time scare you away -- there's never a dull moment. This is definitely a "Thank goodness for PBS" moment.
