New York. 1990. May 1990. Anchor Press/Doubleday. 1st Anchor Books Paperback Edition. Very Good in Wrappers. 0385413823. 175 pages. paperback. Cover photograph by Nigel Dickson. keywords: Biography Journalism Politics America. FROM THE PUBLISHER - Why is so little written about I. F. Stone, who for 60 years has been America's most celebrated radical journalist, and whose Weekly was for many years required reading, even for those in Washington whom it regularly pilloried? That is one of the cogent questions asked, but only partly answered, by journalist Patner, who has put together an all-too-slim but entirely engaging portrait of his feisty subject. Stone was elusive, to say the least, and was only finally persuaded to tolerate a series of fleeting interviews on the run by the combined efforts of his wife Esther and Studs Terkel. What he wanted to talk about his long passionate interest in ancient Greece and its philosophers and what Patner wanted to pursue Stone's journalistic career and political views mean that we get a great deal more of the former than of the latter. But somehow Patner skillfully weaves the disjunctive material together into a portrait of a formidably self-taught man of clear principle, rich enthusiasms and frequent humor, whose impact on American political life has never been adequately assessed. The book is no substitute for a full-length biography, but neither is it trivial or superficial; it merely whets one's appetite for more on Stone. - PUBLISHERS WEEKLY. inventory #33325 ISBN: 0385413823.
