Chantilly silverware - HISTORY HAPPENED HERE by the editors. Bermuda: “Calm Clear Land.” - THE TIME MACHINE - THE WIMP FACTOR by Bruce Curtis. A year ago we were in the midst of a presidential campaign most memorable for charges by both sides that the opponent was not hard enough, tough enough, masculine enough. That he was, in fact, a sissy. Both sides also admitted this sort of rhetoric was deplorable. But it’s been going on since the beginning of the Republic - YESTERDAY, DECEMBER 7, 1941…” by Richard M. Ketchum. The bombs that fell that Sunday didn’t just knock out some battleships, they roused America into a new age.

The medieval look that swept America a hundred and fifty years ago wasn’t just a matter of nostalgia; it was also a very model of a modern architectural style - EDITORS’ BOOKSHELF - POSTSCRIPTS TO HISTORY-John Smith’s Bill: Then and Now, by James B.M. Schick. –Walter Karp, By Jane Karp
