Richard Milhous Nixon (1913-1994) was elected 37th President of the
United States in 1968 after representing California in the U.S. House of
Representatives (1947-1951) and U.S. Senate (1951-1953) and serving two terms as
Dwight D. Eisenhower's Vice President (1953-1961). He lost (1960), then won,
extremely close Presidential elections (facing John F. Kennedy and Hubert
Humphrey, respectively), then won re-election by a landslide against George
McGovern in 1972. Nixon's re-election triumph rapidly turned sour, however, as
the burgeoning Watergate scandal claimed more and more of his key aides and
finally compelled his own resignation in August 1974. A pragmatic conservative
who gained an early reputation as an anti-communist but achieved diplomatic
triumphs in relations with China and the Soviet Union, Nixon's prolific
writing in his retirement years helped repair his reputation and hasten his
re-emergence as an elder statesman. Mounitng board is soiled at right blank
margin. Fine condition.
