Another one I grabbed off the shelves of my workplace's closing library.
From the dustjacket:
"Mr. Nixon has known virtually every major foreign leader since World War II: some at the pinnacle of power; some during their "years in the wilderness" — while out of power; and others at the ends of their lives. He has enjoyed the intimated confidences of some, listened as others cleverly dissembled, and has himself taken part in the high-stakes interactions of heads of state. His has been an unparalleled opportunity to gain insight into the natures of powerful men and the qualities of leadership. In Leaders, Mr. Nixon shares these insights and experiences."

Promised to Beachlover2003.
Well, it's taken more than a year, but at tonight's BookCrossers on the Potomac Meetup I'm finally going to pass this on to Beachlover2003. My apologies for the really long wait! I hope you enjoy the book!
Picked up at a meetup from wyldanthem. I have to say, still reeling from last week's election, I'm not anxious to read a book by the most notorious President ever. But, anxious to expand my view of the world and to delve into history, I will read it.
I just can't promise I'll read it soon. :-)
Thanks, wyldanthem

I never got around to reading this, but since I am moving out of state at the end of next month, this got included in a sweep of books out of my apartment. I brought them to work for others to take and share and enjoy. They may end up at yard sales at some point, but right now, they are in controlled release at my office.
