...talk of a new spirit at the Real Paper--or an old spirit at the Real Paper, something close to the shared high purpose that launched the paper. But it didn't last long. Writers soon tangled with Gelber over some of his new procedures. (For example, Craig Unger '69 didn't see why he now had to clear in advance with Gelber all items in his regular page three "short Takes" column.) Factions developed, or regenerated, with some staff members complaining that the Real Paper--almost two and a half years old then--still needed sound direction from...
China watchers differed over how to interpret this ultramilitant rhetoric. State Department experts denied that Chou's remarks prefaced a new freeze in Sino-American relations. Some Washington experts speculated that the Chinese were angry about the recent appointment of Leonard Unger, a senior career diplomat, as U.S. Ambassador to Taiwan.

The communication of the texture--both of skin and of darkness--in these predominantly black photographs is impeccable...

But since the content of the papers is not the subject of the book, the decision to publish and the consequences must be central. The account the Unger has written of that decision read well enough in a magazine, but when expanded to along book...
