Contrarian

By Peter Kaye

Contrarian by Peter Kaye is a fast-paced memoir about the author's 55 years as a newspaper reporter and editor, TV commentator and producer, campaign aide and more. Now 80 years old, Kaye grew up in the Great Depression and served in both World War II and Korea. Kaye's descriptions of major events are fascinating and illuminating. In pitch-perfect prose, he relates personal anecdotes about such giants such as Richard Nixon, Ronald Reagan and John Glenn. Contrarian also places Kaye at the forefront of major events from the early days of the U. S. space program to President John F. Kennedy's assassination and then Watergate. Readers will savor this panoramic you-are-there view of history, told in the author's moving, amusing and engaging voice.
