"William Pfaff is Walter Lippmann's authentic heir. Like Lippmann, he places the rush of events in historical and cultural perspective and writes about them with lucidity and grace." - Arthur M. Schlesinger, Jr. "America's best foreign affairs columnist." - Ronald Steel, Lippmann's biographer. William Pfaff's "Reflections" on politics and contemporary history have appeared in The New Yorker since 1971.
