About The Secret Man: The Story of Watergate's Deep Throat by Bob Woodward
Bob Woodward recounts his relationship with W. Mark Felt, the senior FBI official later revealed as Deep Throat, whose secret assistance helped Woodward and Carl Bernstein investigate Watergate. The account follows their connection from an early encounter in the Nixon White House through covert meetings and the decades before Felt identified himself publicly.
Part memoir, political history, and reflection on journalism, the book revisits the Washington Post’s Watergate reporting and the conflict between the Nixon administration and the FBI. It also examines Woodward’s later, tense relationship with Felt, who faced charges over authorizing FBI burglaries. Readers interested in Watergate, investigative reporting, and the workings of American government will find a personal account alongside political context.
