Six Months Later, A Second Installment Ran In Another Full Issue. Later The Times Asked Him To Write Still A Third Issue On The Impeachment. This Piece Never Appeared Because It Was Overtaken By Nixon'S Resignation. But Lukas'S Painstaking Reporting On Nixon'S Last Months In Office Appears Here, Twentyfive Years After His Resignation, For The First Time In Paperback, Along With Added Information On Every Aspect Of Watergate.Widely Acclaimed As A Major Text Of The Watergate Saga, J.
