Synopsis
In the spirit of John F. Kennedy's Pulitzer Prize-winning Profiles in Courage , 13 essays honoring modern-day political heroes, penned by a collection of stellar authors Nearly half a century after then-Senator John F. Kennedy was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for Profiles in Courage , his masterful portrait of American heroes, the words "politician" and "courage" are rarely uttered in the same breath. But, as this celebration of modern political bravery amply demonstrates, there are countless examples of heroism among today's elected officials. Profiles in Courage for Our Time pays tribute to 13 such heroes, each a recipient of the prestigious Profile in Courage award. The essays' authors are as noteworthy as their subjects: Anna Quindlen writes about Governor James Florio's passing of the strictest gun control law in the nation; Al Hunt details Russell Feingold and John McCain's efforts to reform political financing; Bob Woodward writes on former President Gerald Ford's controversial decision of conscience to pardon former President Richard Nixon. "The Profiles in Courage Award seeks to honor those whose lives of service prove that politics can be a noble profession. We hope that Americans realize that there are men and women serving at all levels of our government who are legends of our time." -- Caroline Kennedy Renowned authors and award-winners featured in Profiles in Courage for Our Time : Michael Beschloss on Carl Elliot, Sr. Bill Kovach on Charles Weltner E. J. Dionne on Lowell Weicker, Jr. Anna Quindlen on James Florio Pete Hamill on Henry Gonzalez Steve Roberts on Michael Synar Marian Wright Edelman on Corkin Cherubini Maryanne Vollers on Charles Price Ron Suskind on Nickolas C. Murnion Michael Daly on Irish Peace Makers Anthony Walton on Hilda Solis Al Hunt on Russell Feingold and John McCain Teresa Carpenter on John Lewis Bob Woodward on Gerald Ford, Nearly half a century after then-Senator John F. Kennedy was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for Profiles in Courage , the Kennedy family continues to keep alive the tradition of honoring selfless public service with its Profiles in Courage Award. Now in paperback, Profiles in Courage for Our Time pays tribute to 13 such heroes in the same spirit as the original collection. Some of our greatest writers have brought their formidable talents to this celebration of modern political bravery including Michael Beschloss, Anna Quindlen, Bob Woodward, and Marian Wright Edelman. Also included is Caroline Kennedy's profile of the latest award recipient, Kofi Annan. These are just a few of the luminaries who eloquently and passionately record the experiences of the award winners. This celebration of modern political bravery demonstrates that heroism among today's elected officials is as possible and inspiring as ever. "The Profiles in Courage Award seeks to honor those whose lives of service prove that politics can be a noble profession. We hope that Americans realize that there are men and women serving at all levels of our government who are legends of our time." --Caroline Kennedy, In the spirit of John F.

- k***1 (220)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufThis is a very nice car at one of the best prices on eBay! The transaction was smooth as silk and shipping was quick! Everything was well wrapped and packaged to survive USPS shipping. Sadly, the trucks snapped off the car while trying to remove it from the manufacturer's box. I reached out to the seller about the issue in an attempt to figure out what I did wrong. Jon responded quickly to make things right, even though it wasn't his fault. What OUTSTANDING customer service! Many thanks!
