"Let us bear witness to the plain truth that we can only insure that our soldiers and sailors and marines and airmen have not died in vain by resolving, as citizens of the land for which they died, that we shall not ourselves live in vain." -RN

This , the Richard Nixon Foundation honored the brave Americans who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our nation with a wreath-laying ceremony. Gold Star daughter Danielle Guthrie and Gold Star son Roy Knight participated in the ceremony.

On March 18, 1992, in a letter to a high school teacher, former President Nixon recommended 12 essential reads for young people interested in history and biography:

1. Tolstoy’s, War and Peace
2. Tolstoy’s, Anna Karenina
3. Dostoevsky’s, The Possessed
4. Blake’s, Disraeli
5. Churchill’s, Great Contemporaries
(Among all of Churchill’s voluminous books, your students will find this one the most interesting and instructive in the event that they decide to choose politics as a career.)
6. Barbara Tuchman’s, The Guns of August
7. Crozier’s, De Gaulle
8. Elizabeth Longford’s, Wellington
9. Ulysses Grant’s, Memoirs
(This is universally regarded as the best Presidential memoir in history.)
10. Paul Johnson’s, Modern Times
11. Edmund Morris’, The Rise of Theodore Roosevelt
12. August Heckscher’s, Woodrow Wilson

Richard Nixon stood on the highest mountain tops and walked the deepest valleys.

After serving as US Congressman, Senator, and Vice President, Nixon lost one of the closest presidential races in history. Two years later, he lost his campaign for Governor of California. ABC News even aired a special called The Political Obituary of Richard Nixon.
Everyone counted him out.

Six years later, Richard Nixon was elected the President of the United States. He was re-elected in a landslide. 

Then came the deepest valley yet. In 1974, Richard Nixon resigned from office.

But the day was not over. His greatest comeback was still ahead. For the next twenty years, he wrote bestselling books, met with world leaders, and advised presidents. He served the country he loved until the very end.

His evening hadn't come. Neither has yours.
You can always have a comeback.
