Richard Nixon’s Lawless Breed

Last Subject Of Scoundrels  Nixon: A Life

Richard Nixon continues to attract the criminal element of the authorial class.

   Conrad Black pumped out his Nixon bio just before going to the slammer for corporate skimming. And now we are to have a return engagement by Jonathan Aitken, author of Nixon: A Life.

The years since he wrote on Nixon have been harsh for Aitken, who thanks to British libel law was jailed for perjury.  The biographer/fan hopes to cash in on the Nixon Centenary Wave in 2013.

Aitken may have a clear field for the anniversary.  If he serves his entire sentence Black will still be in prison when the glorious day arrives.
