The Secret Man: The Story of Watergate's Deep Throat ハードカバー – 2005/7/6
英語版
Bob Woodward
(著)
In Washington, D.C., where little stays secret for long, the identity of Deep Throat -- the mysterious source who helped Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein break open the Watergate scandal in 1972 -- remained hidden for 33 years. Now, Woodward tells the story of his long, complex relationship with W. Mark Felt, the enigmatic former No. 2 man in the Federal Bureau of Investigation who helped end the presidency of Richard Nixon.The Secret Man chronicles the story in intimate detail, from Woodward's first, chance encounter with Felt in the Nixon White House, to their covert, middle-of-the-night meetings in an underground parking garage, to the aftermath of Watergate and decades beyond, until Felt finally stepped forward at age 91 to unmask himself as Deep Throat.The Secret Man reveals the struggles of a patriotic career FBI man, an admirer of J. Edgar Hoover, the Bureau's legendary director. After Hoover's death, Mark Felt found himself in the cross fire of one of Washington's historic contests, as Nixon and his men tried to dominate the Bureau and cover up the crimes of the administration. This book illuminates the ongoing clash between temporary political power and the permanent bureaucracy of government. Woodward explores Felt's conflicts and motives as he became Deep Throat, not only secretly confirming Woodward and Bernstein's findings from dozens of other sources, but giving a sense of the staggering sweep of Nixon's criminal abuses.In this volume, part memoir, part morality tale, part political and journalistic history, Woodward provides context and detail about The Washington Post's expose of Watergate. He examines his later, tense relationship with Felt, when the FBI man stood charged with authorizing FBI burglaries. (Not knowing Felt's secret role in the demise of his own presidency, Nixon testified at Felt's trial, and Ronald Reagan later pardoned him.) Woodward lays bare his own personal struggles as he tries to define his relationship, his obligations, and his gratitude to this extraordinary confidential source.The Secret Man is an intense, 33-year journey, providing a one-of-a-kind study of trust, deception, pressures, alliances, doubts and a lifetime of secrets. Woodward has spent more than three decades asking himself why Mark Felt became Deep Throat. Now the world can see what happened and why, bringing to a close one of the last chapters of Watergate.

購入した動機は、翻訳本(「ディープ・スロート大統領を葬った男」訳者 伏見威蕃 文藝春秋社)を読んだので原本と読み比べをしてみたいと思ったからです。

ついにディープスロートの正体が判明。
ボブ・ウッドワードは運が良かっただけなのか、
運をつかむのも実力のうちなのか。
ウォーターゲートは、マスコミの勝利だったのか、
パワーゲームに踊らされていただけなのか。
色々考えさせられました。事実であれば尚更、
なまじな推理小説よりよほど面白かったです。

This is an interesting book on a number of levels.
Bob Woodward (as always) has written a very readable novel-like book on his dealings with Deep Throat aka W. Mark Felt, the number 2 man in the FBI at the time of Watergate.
The background to how he met Felt is described in detail as are the machinations around the information that was provided. It adds that extra element to the Watergate stories that Woodward and Bernstein told in their book.
What I think was interesting was the relationship between Felt and Woodward. Felt knew that what he was doing could be perceived to be wrong and it appears obvious that the extensive precautions he took were justified as the stakes were so high. Woodward was a younger man trying to piece together what could be the largest political scandal in US history. He wanted the information, Felt knew the information but Felt wanted Woodward to work for it, he would be given vital clues but it was up to Woodward to find the answers.
Was this due to Felt not wanting to really be divulging all the information but that he was trying to give hints to escape liability to himself that what he was doing was wrong? The author has some ideas but sadly couldn't get all of the information he wanted as Felt was losing his memory in the later years.
Very much the story of a mentor relationship and I found it really interesting.

Every aspect of Watergate is still fascinating. Americans owed a lot to this man for disclosing enough to get the story out there. When will we all have had enough of government cover-ups!

' Nixon's nemesis--'Deep Throat'.
2014年10月15日に英国でレビュー済みAmazonで購入
I suggest that this fine book is read last in what ,in effect , is a trilogy: 'All the President's Men', 'The Final Days ' --in this order. Woodward provides an illuminating narrative of his relationship with Mark Felt over many years whilst keeping the secret that Felt is 'Deep Throat'. For over 30 years , a multitude of articles and books appeared speculating on his identity. The dilemmas facing Woodward in particular when he learns that Felt is a victim of dementia provide fascinating reading. That Felt and his family's security is safeguarded is to the immense credit of the few who knew and did not attempt to gain from it. At the same time ,Woodward is honest enough to state that keeping the secret proved profitable for him as an investigative writer as his subsequent sources for future books mostly trusted him from the beginning of any interview. Felt's place in history is clear :he was a hero despite the lies he believed that he had to tell, even to members of his family.

Woodward mentions the book was written quickly and it's not as polished as his other books that I've read, but the details of history are fascinating. The book was a pleasure to read and well worth my time.
BTW The Brethren is one of the best books I ever have read and reread, even decades later.
