The oddly true, laugh-out-loud story of a teenager, an Oval Office, and a ringside seat to Watergate.

"A captivating account of a historically momentous time told from a refreshingly uncommon perspective... Stinson's prose is unfailingly clear and his tone is self- effacing."
Kirkus Review of Books
"A unique style! I call it 'whimsical irony.'"

"(Don Stinson) may be the only man in the world who can say (his) wingmen were Bob Hope and Charlton Heston!"

"Stinson furnishes his own idiosyncratically personal perspective (of Watergate), brimming with extraordinary anecdotes, character portraiture, and the astute, if green, observations of an inexperienced youth."
"The remembrance is filled with remarkable stories—on the last evening of Nixon’s tenure, while the President was composing his resignation speech, Stinson mistakenly attempted to deliver a communication to the Oval Office intended for the flower shop." "He reservedly allows readers to form their own opinions about Nixon and his legacy, choosing to supply his own impressions of the man at the time, movingly conveyed: 'Just listening to him was exhilarating, like punching the accelerator on a Lamborghini.'" |
