| Description | Editorial cartoon shows former President Nixon crushed under three mammoth books: The Ends of Power by H.R. Haldeman, The Company by John Ehrlichman, and Blind Ambition by John Dean. Haldeman, Ehrlichman, and Dean were Nixon's closest aides, and after testimony that implicated Nixon, all three went to prison for their parts in the Watergate Affair. Some years later the three published best-selling books. The Haldeman and Dean books were memoirs of the White House years; the Ehrlichman book was a thinly veiled novel that provided another view of the affair. Marlette plays on Nixon's obsession with establishing a presidential library for his administration. Marlette drew cartoons for the Charlotte Observer and other southern newspapers from 1972 until his death in 2007 and won the Pulitzer Prize in 1988. He also drew the popular comic strip Kudzu. |
