Learn the inside scoop on Watergate, the Ford Pardon, and the 18 1/2 minute Gap.

Roger Stone, the New York Times bestselling author of The Man Who Killed Kennedy, gives us the inside scoop on how Nixon avoided prosecution after the Watergate scandal.

Using Gen Al Haig as his agent, Nixon let Vice President Ford know that he would expose the CIA's involvement in the JFK assassination and Ford's role in altering autopsy records for the Warren Commission if he went to trial in the Watergate scandal.

Nixon's Secrets by Roger Stone is praised for its unique perspective and in-depth research, offering a compelling alternative history of Nixon's era. The book provides an unvarnished portrayal of Nixon, emphasising both his achievements and controversial actions. While some note minor editing errors, the richness of information on events like Watergate overshadows these critiques. Stone is credited with refuting established narratives and shedding new light on historical figures and events.
