Great Book, Different Perspective
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
Decent book, very informative. Even goes behind the scenes a little bit. Very thorough if you are looking for more information on domestic policies. Talks more about the good points instead of the infamous ones. Definitely good for Nixon sympathizers =)
Revisionism Reconsidered
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
Hoff tempers her examination of Nixon with balanced criticism and muted praise in places but remains quite impartial overall. Naturally, a reader may find anything he seeks in an interpretation of the words of the author yet there is no obvious bias or partisanship on the part of Joan Hoff in this work. The amount of revisionism, however, is quite substantial. Hoff seems to have as her purpose for writing this a decided motivation to revise the history of Nixon from the accounts given by fellows ranging from Ambrose to Wills. Granted, her work is more informed and well rounded compared to Ambrose and less agonizing than Wills' Nixon Agonistes yet there seem to be a lack of entirely new information, which would make this work a better choice for the average reader looking for an unbiased, middle of the road examination of Nixon.
Nixon would be pleased..........

Joan Hoff's "Nixon Reconsidered" is a facinating look at one of the most exciting politacal gurus of our time. I have read several books about and by Nixon (such as Six Crisis, The Rise of an American Politician, Beyond Peace, etc.) but this book is a detailed original of the authors own personal feelings and knowledge of Nixon and the trials and tribulations that followed him to his grave. Its got something for every reader
