Very much enjoyed this. Presents Nixon in a realistic yet human light and I found it very informative. I was out of the country for the past 20 years so at least to me several things here were new and gave me a different perspective. Having lived through the "Nixon" years and having recently seen his rehabilitation it seemed a fair and honest presentation. It's a great reminder given the present campaign that these are just people we are choosing to be our leader and we need to really understand what we are buying. Recommended.
