Held on January 20th 1973 the second inauguration of Richard Nixon marked the commencement of the second term of Richard Nixon as President and the second term of Spiro Agnew as Vice President. Nixon resigned one year and twenty days into the term and was succeeded by Gerald Ford who had previously succeeded Spiro Agnew as Vice President 263 days into Spiro's term and following his resignation. While Nixon's premature departure from office often dominates assessments of his presidency his legacy has undergone reevaluation in the more than 40 years since his resignation. Political historian and pollster Douglas Schoen has argued that Nixon was the most important American figure in post-war U.S. politics for his important domestic and foreign policy accomplishments including the foundation of the EPA in 1970 ending the United States Military draft in 1973 and signing the Paris Peace Accords that same year ending U.S. involvement in the Vietnam War. unknown books

1307937th President. Typed letter signed one page quarto. New Jersey April 12 1991 on personal letterhead to Honorable William Hyland. In full: "Dear Bill Talk about going into the lion's den. I thought you would like to see a list of those who attended an off-the-record appearance I made at a Carnegie Endowment forum in Washington Wednesday. I guess they thought that by having me they would balance the fact that Alger Hiss was once their President! Sincerely". During the Red Scare of the 40's and 50's Alger Hiss was accused of secretly being a Communist while in federal service. After Hiss appeared before Congress and denied being a Communist Nixon a Congressman at the time pressed the Committee to continue the investigation. Hiss was found guilty of two counts of perjury. In a curious way the reputation of Alger Hiss was permanently linked to that of Richard Nixon. The Nixon-haters have always been eager to exonerate Hiss while Nixon's fans are usually convinced of Alger's guilt as a spy. When Nixon was doing well for example when he was Vice-President and when he was a popular President during his first term Hiss's reputation suffered a decline. When Nixon did poorly as after his disastrous run for governor and especially during and after the Watergate crisis more people thought of Hiss as an innocent victim. "File" notation in blue marker at the top right otherwise in excellent condition. In over 2 decades it's the only Nixon letter we have ever seen mentioning Alger Hiss. unknown books
