When Watergate loomed over the Nixon Administration, Rumsfeld engineered an appointment as Ambassador to NATO, as far away as possible from the gathering storm. "He was a cool and careful planner," noted Speech writer Robert Hartmann, who tussled with him for influence at the Ford White House.

Even now, those haunting images of the attempt on Pope John Paul II's life last May linger on. For Josef Hartmann, 60, the horror would evolve into an even stronger, more lasting vision.
