Never Dull chronicles the author Robert Estabrook's expansive journalistic career. During 25 years on The Washington Post spanning the Truman, Eisenhower and Kennedy eras, McCarthyism and the Vietnam War, Estabrook wrote editorials and visited 70 countries as a foreign correspondent. He covered world leaders from Khrushchev, De Gaulle, Adenauer, and Macmillan to Chiang Kai-shek, Nehru, and U Thant. In this telling work, Estabrook also divulges the perils and pleasures he experienced during his 34-year love affair with a country weekly in northwest Connecticut, The Lakeville Journal. The book ends with a critical look at journalism and the values that are endangered by the greed that threatens a once-noble profession.
