According to the Editor's Note:
" The great events of the Twentieth Century are recalled by H.V. Kaltenborn, acknowledged dean of broadcasters and world-renowned journalist, make up a handsome volume of text and pictures.
From the more than sixty accounts included, we have chosen nine to reprint here-
beginning with the first, a profile of Williams Jennings Bryan, and ending with pieces on the Berlin Air Lift and the election of President Eisenhower.
H.V. Kaltenborn has met and known the major figures of his time.
From his notebooks and his files, and from the best picture sources, comes this new and fresh remembrance of yesterday. "
Personal Note: The other accounts (and GREAT photos) included are:
Woodrow Wilson; The Rise of Mussolini; The Rise of Adolf Hitler; War in Europe-1939;
