Presidential Libraries

Sisters try to resolve Nixon library dispute

Almost There. Richard Nixon\'s daughters met behind closed doors Tuesday in an attempt to resolve their two-year fight over how to spend a $20 million bequest for their father\'s presidential library.

Library offers history seen through Nixon\'s point of view

Bob Cox sent along This Sacramento Bee Story on the Nixon Library. They say it reflects the perspective of one man who was the center of a sordid chapter in American presidential history, it\'s worth a visit if only for \"a fascinating journey through history.\"
