All the President's men : the greatest reporting story of all time / Carl Bernstein (Autor), Bob Woodward (Autor) - New York, Simon & Schuster, 2022 - xxix, 361 pages : illustrations ; 22 cm

This book follows journalists Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein as they investigate the 1972 Watergate break-in in Washington, D.C. What begins as a seemingly minor burglary at the Democratic National Committee headquarters grows into a major political scandal involving illegal surveillance, political sabotage, and abuse of presidential power.

Using anonymous sources (most famously “Deep Throat”), interviews, and persistent reporting, the journalists uncover a network connecting the burglars to high-level officials in the Nixon administration. Their investigation ultimately contributes to exposing the Watergate scandal and the resignation of President Richard Nixon.

The book is both a detailed account of investigative journalism and a real-time political thriller showing how persistent reporting can uncover systemic corruption.
