註釋This volume presents significant phases in the life of twelve American public figures, based on their Pulitzer Prize-decorated autobiographical works. There are, for example, memories of the Aviator Charles Lindbergh about the final phases of his first nonstop Transatlantic flight to Paris; Washington Post Publisher Katharine Graham tells the dramatic story of the newspaper's coverage of the Watergate Affair; Statesman Dean Acheson reflects his feelings during the early days of the Korean War; Novelist Norman Mailer remembers of his participation at the Anti- Vietnam War Demonstrations in Washington, D.C., while Diplomat George Kennan describes his various activities in Postwar Germany.
