Unintentionally, within days of the Watergate arrests, Haldeman drew the president into a conspiracy to obstruct justice by covering up what had actually transpired there. Gordon Liddy and Howard Hunt, with their team of amateur operatives. This is not to say that the president was uninvolved, for clearly he did not want Watergate to destroy his former attorney general and campaign manager, John Mitchell, who he correctly suspected had approved the illicit operation undertaken by former White House aides G. Haldeman-that Watergate did not directly involve the White House, or him. He incorrectly concluded, however-based on less than complete information from White House chief of staff H.R. Broadly speaking, what I found was that at the outset, Nixon considered Watergate merely a political embarrassment that would pass. The object of my search was an explanation of why Nixon would risk his presidency with the concocted defenses he ultimately offered-defenses based not in fact but in his effort to twist and distort events. ![]()

Indeed, it is in putting this 1930s story in personal and historical perspective that some of its darker meaning emerges. Miss Brodie is memorable for these students, recalled in their later lives, as repeated flash-forwards reveal. She colludes with her students regarding her status in the school and trouble she has with the headmistress. Miss Brodie sabotages school curriculum as she grandstands her own passions, both personal and academic. Miss Brodie’s six students, known collectively as “the Brodie set,” move through the grades. In her 1961 novel, The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie, Muriel Spark brings to life an eccentric, egocentric, and charming teacher in a private Edinburgh school during the 1930s. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() #1 USA Today bestselling author Meg Cabot raves that Kathleen’s A SCHOOL FOR UNUSUAL GIRLS is “completely original and totally engrossing.” ![]() Baldwin's unique plots even captured the attention of a Japanese publisher who adapted her Regency Romance, LADY FIASCO, into a manga.
