Richard Nixon: California's Native Son by Paul Carter
English | September 1st, 2023 | ISBN: 1640125604 | 448 pages | True EPUB | 2.63 MB

All have missed arguably the most important perspective on Nixon as California's native son, the only U.S. president born and raised in California. In addition, Nixon was also a son, brother, friend, husband, father, uncle, and grandfather. By shifting the focus from Watergate and Washington to Nixon's deep, defining roots in California, Paul Carter boldly challenges common conceptions of the thirty-seventh president of the United States.
