About The Book

The country faced a Constitutional crisis during Watergate. He stood firm for the rule of law.As the chief judge of the federal court in Washington D.C. in 1972 John J. Sirica took on the trial of burglars arrested while planting electronic bugs in the Democratic headquarters in the Watergate complex. Who had sent them? The defendants werent saying and President Nixon disavowed any knowledge of the matter. Sirica came to the law as the son of an Italian immigrant who lived a hardscrabble life. From these roots he fought as a boxer while simultaneously going to law school. Practicing law in D.C. he defended criminals and prosecuted them too. No Person Above the Law describes how he was determined to see the truth come out during the Watergate scandal even going toe-to-toe with the president to order the release of secret tapes. Named Time Man of the Year he held high the central promise of the U.S. Constitution: no person is above the law.
