A long row of candles is a landmark in the field of journalistic memoirs. In his distinguished career Mr. Sulzberger has witnessed more history in the making, known intimately more great and notorious figures on the international scene than any other newspaperman of our time. The entries in his diary range from fascinating gossip to piercing character analysis, from witty stories to profound and often prophetic views of key world situations.

C. L. Sulzberger's A LONG ROW OF CANDLES is a landmark in the field of journalistic memoirs. In his distinguished career, Mr. Sulzberger has witnessed more history in the making, known intimately more great - and notorious - figures on the international scene than any other newspaperman of our time. What brings special immediacy and freshness to his history of the years, largely in Europe, from 1934 to 1954 is that after each important encounter with the people who make news, after covering councils where the fate of the world hung in the balance, it was C. L. Sulzberger's custom to jot down in his diary a frank, terse, colorful summary of his impressions and private conversation. The entries range from fascinating gossip to piercing character analysis, from witty stories to profound and often prophetic views of key world situations. During the years covered here he organized and ran "The New York Times" foreign Service, establishing uninterrupted news coverage of every single major area. He witnessed WWII and the division of world power into two superstates, the USA and the USSR, the East-West division of Germany, the growing involvement of America in Indochina, plus dozens of other globally important happenings. He was on intimate terms with kings, statesmen, diplomats, generals, and presidents. Many rarely interviewed people - Churchill, de Gaulle, Tito, Franco, Eisenhower, and scores of others - talked with him frankly and at length on repeated occasions. He was privy to many inside stories which he now tells. Readers familiar with his usually restrained column in "The New York Times" or the 178 newspapers in which it was syndicated are in for some big surprises in these diaries. A LONG ROW OF CANDLES is that rare volume which offers a uniquely valuable first-hand record of history in the making and at the same time engrossing and exciting reading. Extensive index.

Europe, 1848, three imperial dynasties rule over territories stretching from Germany South to the Adratic Sea and the east to the Bering Strait on the Pacific Coast The Houses of Habsburg, Hohenzollern, and Romanov rule over lands more vast than the British Empire at its greatest extent. In their struggle for continental domination and for eternal guarantees for their rule by divine right, they nurture the weeds of reaction that are destined to choke European democracy and become part of the conflagration of 1914

Paradise Regained records what Djilas himself has called the rambling conversations shared by intellectuals who have grown old, each with a distinctly different experience. Their mutual respect is reflected in Sulzberger's recollections of their often spirited and frank discussions. Sulzberger provides what may be Djilas' final opportunity to expound on the great events of the twentieth century as he saw them and what he learned from a life marked by significant political power as well as twenty-nine years with no or restricted personal freedom. He provides a new, more human perspective of a key figure in Eastern European politics. This book is essential reading for anyone interested in the history of the twentieth century and will also prove engrossing as one man's personal testament to a friend.

"With respect to the broad range of literary expression known as prayer, whether theistic, deistic, or poetic, I have spent more than four decades collecting selections that struck me as memorable or poignant. These ... I call 'uncommon prayers.' joined (regardless of individual credo) by intrinsic quality of their content. "To a considerable extent, these uncommon prayers display the perspective of humanity, its dreams, its fears, its weakness and strengths: a complete panoply of man against the awesome background of his own imagination."
