Timeless history recorded live...Tom Wicker discusses the life and character of Richard Nixon The bestselling author of "One of Us: Richard Nixon and the American Dream", novelist and veteran New York Times columnist Tom Wicker lends his unmistakable voice to the groundbreaking "Character Above All" audio series with an illuminating examination of one of America's most infamous Presidents. Recorded live at the LBJ School of Public Affairs at the University of Texas at Austin, Wicker continues a series of lectures delivered by a team of historians, biographers and journalists assembled by Robert Wilson to explore the Presidential character. Sharing their insight into the Presidents they have written about, these authors and scholars address the larger issue of the impact of the Presidential character on leadership and the creation of trust. Wicker explains that Nixon was an ambiguous character -- talented, suspicious, and a loner, an anomaly in a successful politician. In the end, he was neither evil nor a victim -- except of himself. "Character Above All" is incomparable audio, crackling with the energy and excitement of a great mind at work and the intellectual urgency befitting a topic of lasting national importance.
