Go Quietly . . . or Else

Go Quietly . . . or Else By Spiro T. Agnew Morrow, 288 pp., $10.95 “I feared for my life. If a decision had been made to eliminate me—through an automobile accident, a fake suicide, or whatever—the order would not have been traced back to the White House any more than the ‘get Castro’ orders were traced to their source.”

As a True Believer convinced of Spiro Agnew’s innocence up to the very moment he rose in the federal courthouse in Baltimore to plead nolo contendere to tax-evasion charges-it was at precisely 2:05 p.m., October 10, 1973 I would hope that one distant day, when all can be told, the former Vice President will see fit to write yet another apologia to explain what in God’s name made him write this one.
