Born Again
reviewed on + 54 more book reviews


"Tough, wily, nasty and tenaciously loyal to Richard Nixon" was Time magazine's description of Charles Colson. Was this White House "hatchet-man" truly Born Again? The ex-Marine Captain who supposedly boasted he would run over his own grandmother to reelect the president?
Born Again is the fascinating full story behind the most puplicized conversion of its decade. An insider's view of the Nixon White House.
Brutally honest reporting by Colson takes the reader behind the scenes to the smashing Nixon victory in 1972. He describes what should have been his moment of greatest triumph, his deadness of spirit, and his confrontation that led to his spiritual rebirth.
