{"product_id":"9781511384032","title":"Integrity: Good People, Bad Choices, and Life Lessons from the White House","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn 1971, Egil \"Bud\" Krogh was summoned to a closed-door meeting by John Ehrlichman, his mentor and key confidant of President Richard Nixon, in a secluded office in the Western White House. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKrogh thought he was walking into a meeting to discuss the drug control program launched on his most recent trip to South Vietnam. Instead, he was handed a file and the responsibility for the SIU, Special Investigations Unit, later to become notorious as \"The Plumbers.\" The unit was to investigate the leaks of top-secret government documents, particularly the Pentagon Papers, to the press. The president considered this task critical to national security. Nixon said he wanted the unit headed up by a \"real son of a bitch.\" He got the studious, zealous, and loyal-to-a-fault Bud Krogh instead. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn that instant, Krogh was handed the job that would lead to one of the most famous conspiracies in presidential history and the demise of the Nixon administration. \u003ci\u003eIntegrity\u003c\/i\u003e is Krogh's memoir of his experiences—of what really went on behind closed doors, of how a good man can lose his moral compass, of how exercising power without integrity can destroy a life. It also tells the moving story of how he turned his life back around. For anyone interested in the ethical challenges of leadership, or of professional life, \u003ci\u003eIntegrity\u003c\/i\u003e is thought-provoking and inspiring to listen to.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Brilliance Audio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47054771060976,"sku":"9781511384032","price":9.06,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781511384032_p0.jpg?v=1763723188","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781511384032","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
