Richard Halworth Rovere (May 5, 1915 - November 23, 1979) was an American political journalist. In the early 1940s, he was an assistant editor at The Nation. He joined The New Yorker in 1944 and wrote its "Letter from Washington" column from December 1948 until his death. Throughout the 1940s and 1950s, he periodically contributed to Esquire, Harper's, and The American Scholar; now and then he reported on American matters for Britain's Spectator. His reporting got him on the master list of Nixon political opponents. Arthur Schlesinger's work focused on leaders such as Harry S. Truman, Franklin D. Roosevelt, John F. Kennedy, and Robert F. Kennedy. Derived from a Kirkus review: While the authors give the General full measure of credit as a brilliant military strategist, an able administrator, they succeed in destroying what they call the "MacArthur myth". They trace his career, placing the blame squarely on him for the debacle in the Philippines. They then go on to the balance of the war, emphasizing the incomparable skill with which he carried out Washington directives, even when he quarreled with them. He emerged with most of the glory, yielding little to the Navy and the Marines who had fought most of the battles. As "Proconsul", credit is given him for many of the reforms, particularly the successful land reform. The war in Korea rounds out his Pacific record, with the brilliant conception and execution of the Inchon operation the high spot, and the worsening relations with politicians and statesmen the low. The fiasco of Chinese intervention and the reversals are blamed wholly on him. A revealing and disturbing book. Herblock (Herbert Block) (illustratore).…
