...Stops. Long before the press corps actually got in to the courtroom to cover the trial, the Eichmann case was heralded, exploited, rehashed and explored with exhaustive thoroughness. In the U.S., papers that did not serialize Eichmann's life or revisit the Third Reich ranged far afield to fill space. Some went hunting for concentration camp survivors; the Denver Post interviewed 25-year-old Robert Kaye, who served when he was seven as Eichmann's orderly in a camp near Mannheim. Hearst's tabloid New York Mirror interviewed a bevy of teenagers in Queens, among them...

Set against the tough honesty of George Orwell's Homage to Catalonia, or José Maria...

In high good humor, he told of visiting the dacha of Cleveland Industrialist Cyrus Eaton, and of a luncheon at which he had pressed "my old friend" former Governor Averell Harriman to revisit Moscow now that Nelson Rockefeller had freed him to travel. Mikoyan paid tribute to American women -"they were very nice to us; they cannot hide their feelings as well as a man" -and recalled with evident relish his luncheon with those archvillains of Communist mythology, the bankers of Wall Street...
