Inspired by the life and career of Richard Nixon, this volume reproduces 73 satirical, imaginative drawings also featuring Henry Kissinger, Spiro Agnew, and John Mitchell, including an original title page, all created by Philip Guston—one of the 20th century’s most inventive artists—​in 1971. Conceived as a book, the drawings were unpublished during Guston’s lifetime (1913–1980) and were not exhibited until September 2001 in New York.
