Richard Nixon is either revered or reviled, depending on one's point of view. Written by his youngest brother Ed, this unique memoir of the man and the family from which he drew his ideals and values tells of a proud heritage of hard work, self-reliance, and the Quaker belief in equality. With its broad appeal of politics, history, and real-world drama, it offers another lens through which to consider the legacy of our 37th president.

Edward C. Nixon has spent the last five decades pursuing the responsible use of natural resources around the globe. He is president of Nixon World Enterprises, Inc. and current chairman of the Pyron Solar Advisory Board in San Diego, California.
