It also tells the moving story of how he turned his Life back around.
Integrity is Krogh\'s memoir of his experiences-of what really went on behind closed doors, of how a Good man can lose his moral compass, of how exercising power without integrity can destroy a life.
In that instant, Krogh was handed the job that would lead to one of the most famous conspiracies in presidential history and the demise of the Nixon administration.
He got the studious, zealous, and loyal-to-a-fault Bud Krogh instead.
Nixon said he wanted the unit headed up by a real son of a bitch.
The president considered this task critical to national security.
The unit was to investigate the leaks of top-secret government documents, particularly the Pentagon Papers, to the press.
Instead, he was handed a file and the responsibility for the SIU, Special Investigations Unit, later to become notorious as The Plumbers.
Krogh thought he was walking into a meeting to discuss the drug control program launched on his most recent trip to South Vietnam.
