Hello [이름], I did some research about ambiguous sentences. It is very confusing at first, but I was able to get the meaning.   Yes, the book you are reviewing is correct. This sentence is ambiguous. The original sentence is: "Jone wrote a book about Nixon." The sentence is ambiguous because it doesn't specify what it says about Nixon.   The sentence is ambiguous because the grammar or syntax is not clear. The meaning is not specific. In order for the grammar or meaning of the sentnece to be clear, you can change the sentence. Here is the non-ambiguous sentence: "Jone wrote a book  about Nixon's life." I hope this helps you. See you later.
