Produktbeschreibung
Since its opening in 1965, the Watergate complex has been one of Washington's chicest addresses, a home to power brokers from both political parties and the epicenter of a scandal that brought down a president. In The Watergate, writer and political consultant Joseph Rodota paints a vivid portrait of this landmark and the movers and shakers who have lived there. From the irrepressible Martha Mitchell to Ruth Bader Ginsburg to Monica Lewinsky, Watergate residents?an intriguing cast of politicians, journalists, socialites and spies?have been at the center of America's political storms for half a century. Rodota unlocks the mysteries of the complex the Washington Post once called a ?glittering Potomac Titanic? in this captivating look at the passengers and crew of this legendary building.
