This witty, wide-ranging memoir from Roy Reed--a native Arkansan
who became a reporter for the New York Times--begins with tales of
the writer's formative years growing up in Arkansas and the start
of his career at the legendary Arkansas Gazette. Reed joined the
New York Times in 1965 and was quickly thrust into the chaos of the
Selma, Alabama, protest movement and the historical interracial
march to Montgomery. His story then moves from days of racial
violence to the political combat of Washington. Reed covered the
Johnson White House and the early days of the Nixon administration
as it wrestled with the competing demands of black voters and
southern resistance to a new world. The memoir concludes with
engaging postings from New Orleans and London and other travels of
a reporter always on the lookout for new people, old ways, good
company, and fresh outrages.
