Richard Milhous Nixon. Serial political trickster for whom the Watergate scandal provides a fittingly ignominious epitaph? Or champion of traditional American values and titan of Cold War diplomacy? Thirteen years after his death and thirty years after the scandal that ensured his lasting notoriety, the life and career of former US president Richard Nixon continue to fascinate and baffle in equal measure.

'The Invincible Quest' is an authoritative biography of one of the most accomplished and controversial political leaders of the 20th century. Drawing on recently opened tapes and documents, and on Black’s personal interviews with many of the major players in the Nixon administration, 'The Invincible Quest' reveals a new side of Nixon; a man who didn’t have the advantage of charisma but was surprisingly self-assured and effective; a man dogged by political scandal yet seemingly unstoppable.

Black tells the extraordinary story of Nixon’s meteoric rise, scandalous fall and partial rehabilitation in the fast-paced and supremely readable style that characterised his earlier, best selling work, 'Franklin Delano Roosevelt, Champion of Freedom' (2003).
