The George Seldes Reader

George Seldes didn't just report history--he made it. The gadfly of American journalism interviewed all of the important men of his generation ranging from Hitler, Mussolini, and Stalin, to FDR and Harry Truman. Seldes' weekly newsletter In Fact put newspapers to the test of honesty and accuracy. Seldes books such as Lords Of The Press are still used in journalism schools. This collection of his finest writing offers a sweeping view of the twentieth century.
