These essays offer journalist and Senator Richard Neuberger's vision of mid-century American politics. Among the foremost journalists of his time, Neuberger's byline was identified with the politics and social trends, the mountains and forests of the Pacific Northwest for more than a generation. From his eyewitness account of Hitler's "new Germany" in 1933 through his own rise to political prominence in the fifties, this collection of essays represents the full range of his writing.
