The nixon chapter was written by the late stanley cutler. He was a professor of history at the university of madison wisconsin. One of the great scholars of the watergate era. This chapter was one of the last things that he wrote before he passed away in 2015. As you can see from the introduction,wa Richard Nixon was a man of many paradoxes, born in a modest home in yorba linda, california that his father built using a sears kit. Quakerher was a devout and tried to instill in him a set of moral values. His father spent his time as an argumentative unhappy man. Those were the qualities also passed along to young Richard Nixon.
