George W. Bush has every reason to hate Pat Buchanan. After all, the pundit turned candidate savaged the Texas Governor's father in '92, when Buchanan challenged President Bush for the G.O.P. nomination, labeling him "King George." And Buchanan has attacked the younger Bush on everything from free trade to abortion, referring to him as the "prince...

...families of the dead aviators agree. "There's a coziness and collusion between the Marines and Bell because of the Marines' reliance on Bell," says William Straw, father of the 29-year-old Marine pilot killed in the Texas crash. The Straw family knows something about military aviation. William, a 1967 graduate of the Air Force Academy and a former test pilot, won the Distinguished Flying Cross for piloting a C-130 cargo plane through bad weather and enemy fire to resupply a beleaguered U.S. outpost in Vietnam. Both of Robert's grandfathers won that decoration in World...

...much to base accusations of anti-Semitism on," remarks historian Father Pierre Blet of the 1919 letter. A similar tendentiousness, he says, mars Cornwell's whole work: "He ignores a great deal of material which doesn't fit his theory and makes grave accusations without supplying the evidence." Blet was one of four Jesuits who compiled the official 12-volume record of Pius' war years from Vatican archives. He too has a new book: a useful summary titled Pius XII and the Second World War. Blet maintains that the 1933 pact was "practically imposed by Hitler." And papal power...

What am I doing here? Serena Williams asked herself in the middle of the championship tie breaker that would help her make history, allow her to fulfill her father's predictions and alter her relationship with her older sister. It was a moment of doubt. But being 17, she dismissed it quickly--just as swiftly as she recovered from the nervousness that tripped up two earlier chances to win the title outright in her match against Martina Hingis. Serena's prevailing ethos reasserted itself: she doesn't lose tie breakers. She hasn't lost one all year. The rule held...
