Just Enough Liebling

New Yorker editor David Remnick introduces this collection of the writing of A.J. Liebling, who wrote for the magazine from 1935 until his death in 1963. Liebling produced a collection of articles on a variety of subjects, including biographical profiles of boxers, vividly evocative memoirs of life in France during World War II (including some of his reporting from the battlefield), and--always--compelling appreciations of the good life, and especially of food. Renowned as one of the great New Yorker writers, Liebling is endlessly entertaining: witty, informative, curious, and compassionate. Copyright (C) Muze Inc. 2005. For personal use only.
