Watergate Free Audiobook Download by Garrett M. Graff

If the words "Watergate" and "audiobook" don't conjure up images of a shadowy conspiracy, then you're not quite old enough to remember listening to Watergate narrated by Jacques Roy (and later by Garrett M. Graff). With voice actor George Wilson narrating, a reader's attention was drawn through the usual Washington story of late-night phone calls and cover-ups, but also on the more human side of things - the characters and their motivations.

"Watergate" is a political bestseller that tells the story of the 1972 Watergate scandal and its aftermath through the recollections of those who lived it - reporters, lawyers, politicians. "Watergate" has been adapted into a TV series and film.

"It was June 1972. The FBI had just arrested four of the burglars and Nixon's nemesis, Democratic Congressman John F. Kennedy, Jr., had discovered a trove of incriminating evidence from their trash. It seemed the fix was in."

For the first time, the Watergate scandal is presented in a single volume. As investigative journalist and author, Garrett M. Graff breaks down the key moments of Richard Nixon's presidency and its lasting effect on American history with a new level of detail and clarity not seen before.

What was the scandal that brought down a president? For many, the answer is a 40 year old secret. But for Garrett M. Graff, journalist and author of 'The Threat Matrix', it is easy to explain: Watergate was President Richard Nixon's attempt to cover up the break-in at DNC headquarters in 1972 by using his attorney general and his White House chief of staff to lie about what really happened when the burglars were caught.

"Watergate" is a 1976 American docudrama film directed by Michael Cimino and written by Francis Ford Coppola and John Milius. The film concerns the political scandal surrounding the 1972 burglary of the Democratic National Committee headquarters at the Watergate office complex, an event that eventually led to President Richard Nixon's resignation from office in 1974.
