"The work that brought down a presidency...perhaps the most influential piece of journalism in history" (Time)—from the #1 New York Times bestselling authors of The Final Days.
The most devastating political detective story of the century: two Washington Post reporters, whose brilliant, Pulitzer Prize-winning investigation smashed the Watergate scandal wide open, tell the behind-the-scenes drama the way it really happened.
One of Time magazine's All-Time 100 Best Nonfiction Books, this is the book that changed America. Published just months before President Nixon's resignation, All the President's Men revealed the full scope of the scandal and introduced for the first time the mysterious "Deep Throat." Beginning with the story of a simple burglary at Democratic headquarters and then continuing through headline after headline, Bernstein and Woodward deliver a riveting firsthand account of their reporting. Their explosive reports won a Pulitzer Prize for The Washington Post, toppled the president, and have since inspired generations of reporters.
All the President's Men is a riveting detective story, capturing the exhilarating rush of the biggest presidential scandal in US history as it unfolded in real time.

It's easy to see why this book won a Pulitzer Prize, and why it was so easy for the movie adaptation to win Academy Awards. Woodward and Bernstein craft a tale as suspenseful as a fine novel, but it's even more fascinating because it's the true story of the Watergate cover-up. Richard Poe provides an appropriately nuanced narration. Not only does he shift tones to match the content, style, and tempo of the wide-ranging prose, Poe provides near-imitations of the many famous figures, such as Kissinger and Nixon, who appear in the book. Poe provides such a range of voices that the result sounds like a full-cast production. G.T.B. (c) AudioFile 2004, Portland, Maine
