Willkie and American Unity

Excerpt from Willkie and American Unity: Including Face to Face With Presidents The biography of Wendell Willkie cannot be written at this time. His greatest achievements lie before him. In this volume I have endeavored to gather together fragments of information and incidents concerning the activities of Wendell Willkie up to the beginning of his campaign for the Presidency of the United States. This work has been of absorbing interest from the start. The career of Wendell Willkie up to this date has im pressed me because of its dramatic and virile achievements more than that of any candidate for President I have fol lowed as a newspaperman and magazine editor in the past forty years. Although I have known, and met face to face, fourteen Presidents of the United States, I have never met one who so thoroughly appeals to the youthful and forward looking spirit of our country as does Wendell Willkie' About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
