Letters from the Editor The New Yorker's Harold Ross

"[I]t's striking to experience firsthand Ross's famous curiosity: about the whisk brooms used by baseball umpires to sweep off home plate;...about the possibility of growing a small watermelon that would reach full size in a northern season...and about what exactly caused the deaths of people at Hiroshima....[H]e combined his virility with his fussiness, the qualities that made him so contradictory as well as the supremely great editor he became."Ross, Harold G. is the author of 'Letters from the Editor The New Yorker's Harold Ross' with ISBN 9780375756948 and ISBN 0375756949.
