...Clemente is far from spartan. Nixon has 33 Secret Service agents assigned to his protection. He is skittish about security, and his staff has complained-incorrectly-that Lady Bird Johnson has more guards (she has a dozen at most). When a news photographer snapped him with a telephoto lens from the distant window of a neighboring house, Nixon changed the route he takes to his office. "If they can get me with a telephoto lens, they can do the same with a scope on a rifle," he told aides. "I'm not going that way any more." There have...

As the week wore on, cars with an array of license plates from across the nation flocked to Salisbury. Battalions of observers armed with telescopes, cameras dwarfed by huge telephoto lenses, sketch pads and binoculars took up daily vigils.

One detail of the importers' operation, you see, involved a telephone call to a hotel in a famous south Florida resort on the same day the president of the United States was scheduled to visit. The codeword for the payload was "corpse," and so an alert operator...
...particular except what happened around me as I passed the time here, a series of motions made by my eyes as they surveyed the landscape. I found friends, stars, sports events, politics, demonstrations, disappointment and violence and love. I started by trying to be too close, using a telephoto lens and trying to fill the frame with details. As the years passed I stepped back more and more and went to wider lenses, and the images reflected an intellectual...
