From the site, "The Presidential Recordings Program is a unique and ambitious effort to transcribe, edit, annotate, and publish the secret White House recordings of Presidents Roosevelt, Truman, Eisenhower, Kennedy, Johnson and Nixon. This primary source material allows the listener 'into the Oval Office,' affording an unprecedented opportunity to experience first hand how these presidents made key decisions and exercised leadership as they led the United States in peace and in war. From 1940 to 1973, these presidents recorded hundreds of their most significant meetings and telephone calls. The Eisenhower, Kennedy, and Johnson tapes together comprise well over 1,000 hours of recorded meetings and telephone calls. The Nixon tapes alone consist of 3,800 hours." A few audio clips are available on the web site.
