Quarto, printed circular, 2 pages, includes a page of favorable reviews of the magazine by newspapers across the country. Sent to Rev. H. Lyman, Watertown, Mass.1851 Decline and Fall of a famous American Political and Literary Magazine
"The present number will conclude the 14th volume of the American Review…a word of explanation to our friends…The conductors of the Review at the beginning of the present year, differed as to the propriety of a certain manner and tone, and the introduction of certain ideas into it, discussions more especially in reference to the foreign policy of the Government. Not being able in time to reconcile these differences, the party who introduce them resigned his position and it will accordingly be perceived by an examination of the numbers since April last that the old and standard ideas of the party, those on which the Review had heretofore obtained its wide celebrity and circulation, have been resumed...principles of a sound Nationality which in accordance with the… Read More

"De Witt's "Special Report.", in double columns, lacking wrappers, and portraits, removed from bound pamphlet volume, else good."A murder in one's past is generally considered an impediment to a career, and one might think that this would be particularly so if the victim were the district attorney. Sickles, a congressman from New York who shot and killed the son of the author of our national anthem, may have had his advanced by it. Proof of cuckoldry is almost uniformly considered ample justification for homicide, and Sickles was acquitted for shooting his wife's lover on the streets of Washington. Thereafter he became a general in the Civil War, lost a leg at Gettysburg, and went on to be ambassador to Spain." – McDade, Annals of Murder 871

President Roosevelt has asked me to supplement the preliminary reconnaissance which I made in Santo Domingo with a detailed written report. I shall begin work upon this at once and it is very likely that in connection therewith I shall revisit the Island late in the summer.
It will be important for me to remain in as close touch as possible with political and other developments in the Island.

My 16 hours of interviews with Idi Amin were spread out over 4 days, and each hour was filled with some tension, considerable suspense, and constant revelation. The man is difficult to fathom. His moods seem mercurial. I was received twice at his offices and twice at his residence in the suburbs of Kampala. He has a quick and ingratiating charm - but it exists at surface level, like a thin veneer. Sometimes he showed flashes of anger, irritation, and incredulity at a number of my questions (I had drawn up an extensive interview questionnaire - and the queries concerning press reports and foreign criticism of his personal rule and regime were the ones that appeared to bother him). However, the man was… Read More
