About this listen
In the most devastating political detective story of the 20th century, two Washington Post reporters, whose brilliant, Pulitzer Prize-winning investigation smashed the Watergate scandal wide open, tell the behind-the-scenes drama the way it really happened.
Beginning with the story of a simple burglary at Democratic headquarters and then continuing with headline after headline, Bernstein and Woodward kept the tale of conspiracy and the trail of dirty tricks coming - delivering the stunning revelations and pieces in the Watergate puzzle that brought about Nixon's scandalous downfall. Their explosive reports won a Pulitzer Prize for The Washington Post and toppled the president. This is the book that changed America.

Very relevant to current political events
Although the events took place over 40 years ago the lessons regarding the use and abuse of political power are still relevant to this day. Perhaps, more so? It is also a book about the checks and balances in a properly functioning Democracy, if that Democracy is functioning as it should - always for the better of all it's citizens. The measure of a good Society is how it's citizens at all levels of that Society act toward each other. One important function is to have a free and unfettered Press and Media. Woodward and Bernstein remind us that Government is by the people and often those who can have a voice - the Media as a whole mostly - can make that voice be heard. I greatly enjoyed this as an audiobook after having read the print version decades ago.

The conspiracy, the continued cover ups, so relevant now.
Narration was excellent, and the story compelling, like now, the misuse of power to maintain power

Fascinating and compelling
At first I disliked the narrator's voice, but I got used to it and the story really took hold. It's just fascinating what went on in these journalists breaking the story around Watergate from their own words. They're two very different people which you can tell but their combined storytelling is masterful. I've actually listened to this a few times now - still great every time.
