Healing Richard Nixon: A Doctor's Memoir

Rating:
Summary: My Thoughts on "A Doctor's Memoir"
Review: I recently read "Healing Richard Nixon", I found it to be factually flawed and written in a dull and redundant manner. The book implied on several occasions that Richard Nixon was unable to make decisions as a result of his overbearing and controlling Cheif-of-Staff,H.R.Haldeman. It should be perfectly clear to anyone who has ever researched Richard Nixon that he (Nixon) was always capeable of making his own decisions. Haldeman was not the driving force of Nixons insecurities, but was only an asset to the preexisting problem. If you are looking for an accurate portrayal of Nixon, you should look elsewhere. But if you are looking for a poorly written fictional novel, this is the book for you.

Summary: Nixon's true medical history
Review: It is truly remarkable to be able to find a credible source that examines Richard Nixon's true medical history. With so much garbage being proliferated by sensationalistic journalists, such as Anthony Summers, it is nice to hear from Nixon's own personal physician. Obviously, since Nixon has been dead since 1994, the author had nothing to hide and introduces historians and scholars to Nixon's health. A must read, first hand account that is a valuable asset to historians.

Review: This is a wonderfully well-written book that gives the reader an insightful look into the post-resignation life of RMN. The unique perspective that only Nixon's personal doctor could provide is refreshing and makes for a very interesting read.
