Ford's ascent from House Minority Leader to Vice President and ultimately to the Oval Office following Richard Nixon's resignation in 1974. Written with candor and quiet dignity, A Time to Heal presents Ford's firsthand account of navigating one of the most turbulent periods in American political history, including his deeply controversial decision to pardon Nixon — a choice he argues was essential to ending the nation's long national nightmare and allowing the country to move forward. Ford illuminates the inner workings of the White House during the post-Watergate era, offering intimate portraits of key figures and the immense pressures of governing a nation fractured by scandal, the Vietnam War, and economic crisis. The tone throughout is measured and reflective, befitting a man whose defining characteristic was decency, and the narrative stands as an indispensable primary source for anyone seeking to understand the fragile restoration of public trust in American government during the 1970s.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48792239636699,"sku":"2026600000299-SECONDHAND","price":30.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/ce2278a1-0ca0-475b-a92a-b142d44ee185.png?v=1779273810","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026600000299-secondhand-a-time-to-heal-the-autobiography-of-gerald-r-ford","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
