Download or read book The Watergate Girl written by Jill Wine-Banks and published by Henry Holt and Company. This book was released on 2020-02-25 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Obstruction of justice, the specter of impeachment, sexism at work, shocking revelations: Jill Wine-Banks takes us inside her trial by fire as a Watergate prosecutor. It was a time, much like today, when Americans feared for the future of their democracy, and women stood up for equal treatment. At the crossroads of the Watergate scandal and the women’s movement was a young lawyer named Jill Wine Volner (as she was then known), barely thirty years old and the only woman on the team that prosecuted the highest-ranking White House officials. Called “the mini-skirted lawyer” by the press, she fought to receive the respect accorded her male counterparts—and prevailed. In The Watergate Girl, Jill Wine-Banks opens a window on this troubled time in American history. It is impossible to read about the crimes of Richard Nixon and the people around him without drawing parallels to today’s headlines. The book is also the story of a young woman who sought to make her professional mark while trapped in a failing marriage, buffeted by sexist preconceptions, and harboring secrets of her own. Her house was burgled, her phones were tapped, and even her office garbage was rifled through. At once a cautionary tale and an inspiration for those who believe in the power of justice and the rule of law, The Watergate Girl is a revelation about our country, our politics, and who we are as a society.

Book excerpt: Prince des ténèbres ? A maints égards, Richard Nixon est entré dans l'Histoire comme une figure maléfique. Seul président américain à avoir jamais été contraint à la démission, son nom reste attaché au scandale du Watergate. Mais sur toute son œuvre flotte comme un parfum de soufre. Sa fulgurante ascension politique s'est faite aux pires heures de l'anticommunisme de Guerre froide et du maccarthysme. Sa présidence s'est déroulée aux pires heures de la guerre du Vietnam, alors que l'Amérique déchirée était au creux de la vague. Sa politique étrangère, jugée sanglante, a été conspuée. Et il est vrai que Nixon et son âme damnée, Henry Kissinger, ne sont pas pour rien dans la fin tragique de Salvador Allende. Entre autres... Pourtant, Nixon voulait être un homme de paix et son bilan en politique étrangère est aussi marqué par des succès extraordinaires : l'entrée du monde dans la Détente ; le spectaculaire rapprochement avec la République populaire de Chine de Mao Zedong ; la fin de la guerre du Vietnam ; la conclusion des accords de désarmement avec l’Union soviétique ; la diplomatie des sommets ; l’amorce du processus de paix au Proche-Orient... En politique intérieure, là encore Nixon est « plus que le Watergate » et son œuvre a été réévaluée. Il incarne un type de républicain aux politiques plutôt centristes, voire progressistes, dans le domaine social. Un positionnement politique qui a aujourd’hui pratiquement disparu, en raison des dérives droitières successives du Parti républicain depuis cette époque. A la lumière d'archives et de sources nouvelles, cette monumentale biographie de Nixon retrace l'histoire des Etats-Unis au XXe siècle et certaines des étapes les plus importantes de l'histoire des relations internationales, celles qui ont forgé notre monde actuel.
