At midcentury, everyone knew Bennett Cerf: witty, beloved, middle-aged panelist on What’s My Line?, whom TV brought into America’s homes each week. They didn’t know the handsome, driven, paradoxical young man of the 1920s who’d vowed to become a great publisher, and a decade later, was. By then, he’d signed Eugene O’Neill, Gertrude Stein, William Faulkner, and had fought the landmark censorship case that gave Americans the freedom to read James Joyce’s Ulysses.

Se Pansa è stato un giornalista stimato per la sua onestà, un giornalista ‘democratico e di sinistra’, se i suoi scritti sulla Resistenza gli hanno procurato persino il riconoscimento di Grande Ufficiale della Repubblica da parte del presidente Ciampi, come è possibile che, per aver completato la verità sul ‘biennio fatale 1943-45’, si sia trasformato in un falsario o, per i suoi peggiori detrattori, nientemeno che in un fascista?”

E quali sarebbe necessario salvare? Ma la cosa più importante che fanno i classici è renderci la vita insieme più intensa e più semplice, insegnandoci senza averne l'aria lezioni importantissime: cos'è l'identità, cos'è la politica, come si forma la coscienza di un popolo – e come esplode la sua ribellione.

In November 1966, by way of Mexico City, Eton College, Balliol College, Oxford, and a Norwegian raspberry farm, Anthony Cheetham entered the doors of a publishing company for the first time to begin work as a junior editor.

A Life in 50 Books is an affectionate and revelatory account of a publishing life remarkable for its longevity, its entrepreneurial energy and for the breadth and catholicity of its output.

Marguerite Higgins was both the scourge and envy of the journalistic world. A longtime reporter for the New York Herald Tribune, she first catapulted to fame with her dramatic account of the liberation of Dachau at the end of World War II. Brash, beautiful, ruthlessly competitive, and sexually adventurous, she forced her way to the front despite being told the combat zone was no place for a woman. While the Herald Tribune exploited her feminine appeal—it was Maggie's dogged determination, talent for breaking news, and unwavering ambition that brought her success from one war zone to another.

When the opportunity arose to work for Jones, he jumped at it, packing up his life and moving halfway across the country to start his first job as an adult.
