Alexander Haig Letter to Dear Sir, 1907 December 3
Written from Brook Street, Hanover Square, Dr. Haig is advising a patient to diet and to taking as few drugs as possible, but lumbago may be treated by Aspirin.
Haig, the General's Progress
This is the story of an ascent to power, with no pretense to complete biography. My purpose is to draw an informed, thoughtful portrait of the relatively unknown man who became Secretary of State in the Reagan administration and who moved through the highest levels of American government for more than a decade before. It is a portrayal of who he is, what he represents, and how he rose to high office; of the forces and experiences that shaped him; of the quality of his mind and of his public service; of what we might expect of a career and potential still unfinished. The narrative traces the general's progress to the Senate confirmation in early 1981, and deals only incidentally with the events of the first year in the State Department. - Preface.
Caveat
Alexander M. Haig, Jr. writes of his eighteen months as Pres. Reagan's Secretary of State, which included the lifting of the grain embargo and the skirmish in the Falklands, and ended as Israel marched on Beirut.
Haig's Coup
When General Alexander M. Haig Jr. returned to the White House on May 3, 1973, he found the Nixon administration in worse shape than he had imagined. President Richard Nixon, reelected in an overwhelming landslide just six months earlier, had accepted the resignations of his top aides--the chief of staff H. R. Haldeman and the domestic policy chief John Ehrlichman--just three days earlier. Haldeman and Ehrlichman had enforced the president's will and protected him from his rivals and his worst instincts for four years. Without them, Nixon stood alone, backed by a staff that lacked gravitas and confidence as the Watergate scandal snowballed. Nixon needed a savior, someone who would lift his f...
Sins of the Vicar
On November 22, 1963, President John F. Kennedy was just nine days away from implementing what was arguably the most sensitive covert operation of his presidency.The President had charged Army Secretary Cyrus Vance with overseeing all covert operations in Cuba. Cyrus Vance had charged Alexander Haig with training a military unit of Cuban exiles to carry out the operations.But instead of training the Cuban exiles to remove Fidel Castro from power, Alexander Haig, with the help of his friends at the CIA, trained a select few of them to remove John F. Kennedy from power. They turned one of the President's own operations against him.Consequently, every time the United States government withholds...
Inner Circles
Haig gives an inside look at the government and discloses such shocking revelations as Johnson's theories on the assassination of JFK, the indecision in the Oval Office at the beginning of the Vietnam War, Kissinger's confrontation with J. Edgar Hoover, and more. "Contains perceptive and candid analyses of episodes in American foreign policy".--New York Times Book Review.
Against Them: How and Why Alexander Haig, Bob Woodward, Donald Rumsfeld, and Richard Cheney Covered Up the JFK Assassination in the Wake of the Watergate Break-In
In 1974, Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein published All the President's Men, the real-life whodunit that introduced Deep Throat to the American people. A White House insider turned confidential informant, Deep Throat had provided the young Washington Post reporters with enough insider information about the Watergate break-in to force President Richard Nixon from the Oval Office. As a condition of receiving the information, they promised not to reveal Deep Throat's identity until after his death.In the summer of 1999, Bob Woodward dropped in on a retired FBI official named Mark Felt at his home in Santa Rosa, California. During that visit, Woodward convinced Felt to assume the role of Deep Thr...
