A REPORTER'S LIFE
Cronkite, Walter
1996 55587 Cronkite's prose has the same stately cadences as that famous voice, reinforcing the grandfatherly persona that made him America's most trusted anchorman until his retirement in 1981. He also has a dry sense of humor, so his memoirs are dignified rather than pompous. Chapters on the early days of radio and television broadcasting are colorful; the more episodic later portions contain some good anecdotes, plus a frank account of Cronkite's dismay at the direction CBS News took under Van Gordon Sauter. Just the book you'd expect from Uncle Walter. LISTED AT THIRTY FIVE DOLLARS. Knopf 0-394-57879-1 / 9780394578798

A REPORTER'S LIFE - WALTER CRONKITE
Cronkite, Walter
1996 11014572 Cronkite's prose has the same stately cadences as that famous voice, reinforcing the grandfatherly persona that made him America's most trusted anchorman until his retirement in 1981. He also has a dry sense of humor, so his memoirs are dignified rather than pompous. Chapters on the early days of radio and television broadcasting are colorful; the more episodic later portions contain some good anecdotes, plus a frank account of Cronkite's dismay at the direction CBS News took under Van Gordon Sauter. Just the book you'd expect from Uncle Walter. Written with wry, self-deprecating humor, Cronkite's memoir gives us the veteran TV newscaster at his most relaxed and ingratiating as he recounts dozens of his scoops: for example, tracking down and interviewing Takeo Yoshikawa, the Japanese spy who was strategic to the attack on Pearl Harbor, and Daniel Ellsberg when he was in hiding after stealing the Pentagon's secret Vietnam War plans (the Pentagon Papers). Tough-minded, Missouri-born Cronkite, who apprenticed on Houston papers, has been eyewitness to, or participant in, many of the century's momentous events. As United Press war correspondent, he covered D-Day, the Allied air war and the Nuremberg trial. He joined CBS as a Korean War correspondent, and as CBS Evening News anchor for almost two decades (he retired in 1981, pushed out, he says, by a new management more interested in infotainment than substance), he reported on the civil rights movement, NASA's first moon walk, the John Kennedy assassination, freedom struggles in South Africa. Peppered with personal encounters with presidents from FDR to Nixon, plus close-ups of Nazi Hermann Goring, Douglas MacArthur, Castro, Begin and many others, Cronkite's crisp narrative charts the metamorphosis of network television into the defining medium of American consciousness. He also lets loose brickbats on the contemporary scene, bemoaning the "ridiculously small" volume of television news and the superficial quality of political coverage ("The debates are a part of the unconscionable fraud that our political campaigns have become, and it is a wonder that the networks continue to cooperate in their presentation").

ANGELS AND ALL CHILDREN: A NATIVITY STORY IN WORDS, MUSIC, AND ART
Jr., Walter Wangerin
2002 8212 A retelling of Jesus Christ's conception and birth featuring music and portraying the world's children as the first to receive the good news. SYNOPSIS The world is stuck at midnight. People have turned from God and covered their land in darkness deeper than night. All the children are sleeping, and all the parents are sad. But God loves this world. And God sends a baby-born in a manger-to bring morning light to the darkness. And God sends angels to awaken the children .... Here is a uniquely beautiful Christmas book and CD-a story with words, images, and carols that families will tell and sing again and again. About the Author: Walter Wangerin Jr. is a nationally known storyteller and the bestselling author of books for children and adults, including Probity Jones and the Fear Not Angel (a Publisher's Weekly "Best Book of the Year"), In the Beginning There Was No Sky, and The Book of God. Wangerin lives with his wife in Valparaiso, Indiana. FROM THE CRITICS Publishers Weekly Wangerin (previously paired with Ladwig for Probity Jones and the Fear-Not Angel) envisions a musical stage production of the Nativity, to be performed by families as well as church and school groups. The premise may offend many readers: because they have "turned away from God" and rejected His commandments, "the people" are living in darkness, their children unable to wake from sleep. But when God sends Jesus into the world, the people experience a great light and renew their faith. Ladwig's oils are suitably theatrical, but all in all, the results here are off-key. Ages 7-12. (Aug.) FYI: A CD containing a dramatization of the text and songs is included. Copyright 2002 Cahners Business Information. School Library Journal Gr 4-6-This lengthy retelling of the Nativity story begins with God's decision to send the dark, faithless world a savior ("`No, no, this is not good,' he said. `It's time to make time tick again, time to turn the land from night to morning.'" It includes Gabriel's visit to Mary and her incredulous response ("-I can't have [a baby], on account of, I'm not married"). Joseph's initial reaction "to put her away from him" ("I hate this. Oh, but I have to do it") is mitigated when Gabriel again visits and persuades him to change his mind (Joseph giggles). Incongruously, the denouement pictures the baby Jesus in the manger surrounded by contemporary children. While this title represents an evangelical point of view, it is repetitive, anachronistic, and heavy-handed.- Listed at Seventeen dollars. Augsburg Fortress, Publishers 0806637129 / 9780806637129

ASLEEP IN THE SUN
Silvester, Hans Walter
1997 176537 Don't let the cover's cuddly close-up cause you to bypass this book. Asleep in the Sun is packed with beautiful composition and colors. Hans Silvester has been snapping the exquisite beasts of the Cycladic Islands for almost 20 years, and his love and patience have paid off before. In the 1993 Cats in the Sun, he notes the symbiotic rapport between Greeks and their feline gifts: cats keep the rat level within reason, and the humans "like them without exactly loving them, they care for them without exactly caring about them." Silvester, however, obviously cares very much about them, and takes care to catch them in the best possible light. Mediterranean sun and shade sweep across rough pavements, blue sea, and white steps. Cats keep watch in the most tenuous spots, or nap on boats and buildings with elegant panache. If there is more sleeping than leaping in this book, why blame the exhausted kitties? It is the author who admits to being "an unconditional lover of the siesta." Anyway, they still look sublime. Chronicle Books 0-8118-1873-X / 9780811818735

BEYOND THE HORIZON: VISIONS OF THE NEW MILLENNIUM
Mercado, Walter
1997 43090 Walter Mercado explains that mankind is at a turning point. We are passing through a crucial portal in time. He advises that the catastrophic human and natural disasters of the recent past are the death throes of the 2,000-year-old Age of Pisces. And he divines a golden epoch of peace and enlightenment ahead: the Age of Aquarius. Walter foresees that technology will spur a global revolution, enabling us to free our inner selves and reach the higher levels of the universe. Mankind, free of dependency, will unite with nature - and with the natures of others. Human relationships, personal and global, will alter; we will seek spiritual rather than carnal ties. Environmental movements will be pursued with renewed vigor, initiating a return to the wilderness or the exploration of space. Material greed and political power will be firmly renounced. The new person of the New Age will be rich in knowledge, rich in spirit, and rich in consciousness. Grand Central Publishing 0446520667 / 9780446520669
