Review:I had to buy this for a college course. I might as well have wiped myself with the pages. If you are looking for a whole bunch of politically correct lectures about how all of the world's problems are caused by heterosexual, white males, then this is the book for you. If you have to buy this for a college class, I'm sorry. Read more

This books is for those who want to go beyond general knowledge. The book also shows what a challenge it was for Woodward & Bernstein to root out information and to separate truth f... Read more

The book was in pristine condition when I got it, and I even bought it used. Kudos to Amazon! Read more
