Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Watergate

But Were Afraid to Ask

By: Brian J. O’Connor, Lori Perkins

Narrated by: Thomas Kincaid

The story of Watergate is usually told through the prism of straight white male journalists and politicians who were at the center of the scandal—but Watergate happened to all of us—wives, mothers, children, Black, White, queer, immigrants. Those voices and perceptions are rarely heard today. Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Watergate was envisioned as a book that looks at the wider ripples of the Watergate explosion and how it changed the way Americans saw themselves, their country, and the world around them. This is both a serious and irreverent book, put together by a team of two newspaper journalists and 10 college interns from throughout the country. Think of it as a primer on Watergate for the generation that grew up watching The Daily Show.
