Between
February 1971 and July 1973, President Richard Nixon secretly recorded 3,700 hours of
his phone calls and meetings across the executive offices. These recordings
played a leading role in the resignation of our 37th president on August
9, 1974. They remain perhaps the greatest treasure of information ever
left by a president, as well as the most complex, controversial set of
presidential records in U.S. history. However, today these recordings
remain relatively unexplored on non-Watergate topics.
