Book Reviews of The Strong Man: John Mitchell and the Secrets of Watergate

Book Review: History Relived
Summary: 5 Stars

This is an extraordinary piece of historical writing. It reads like a political thriller combined with Greek tragedy as it records the downfall of a great and honorable man who is done in by liliputian political operatives. Rosen accessed hitherto either ignored or unavailable resources such as the internal files of the Watergate Special Prosecutor's office in order to finally answer the question: who was really behind the Watergate break-in?
