...will get the touchy and prestigious post in Paris. Onetime boss of the Army's Research and Development section, ex-Paratrooper Gavin petulantly resigned from the Army in 1958 after losing a battle to push his service farther into the space and missile business. Hustling into print with his book, War and Peace in the Space Age, Gavin impressed the then Senator Kennedy (who reviewed the book for the Reporter magazine) with his argument that future wars would be limited and tactical, necessitating a flexible NATO equipped with a "fire brigade" capable of quelling brushfire wars in Europe...

Joining General Robert E. Lee's forces at the Rapidan in 1862, he thereafter produced the principal visual record of the Confederate campaigns, together with some strongly worded expressions on behalf of the Southern cause: "Surrounded as I am by the Southern people, I emphatically assert that the South can never be subjugated...

Hartford-born Critic Soby was a sophomore at Williams College when he bought his first work, a reproduction of a print by Maxfield Parrish showing a nude girl seated "on a swing over an Arcadian terrace." Next he turned to the "big three'' of the time: Picasso. Matisse and Derain. Much as he admired these artists, Soby was not a man to stick with the crowd for long. His collection grew in no one direction, wandered gently over the face of modern art with his affections and consistent good taste to lead...
