China's Anti-Japanese War, the economic renaissance and political competition in post-war Europe, the U. S. Presidential campaign in the 1960s and 1970s, and the tragedy of the Kennedy family-the memoirs of the legendary American journalist Whitehead not only record his ups and downs in his life, but also faithfully write down the important periods, events, and characters of the 20th century, as well as his own feelings and thoughts during them. As a Pulitzer Prize-winning writer, a legendary American journalist in China, and a disciple of King Fairbank, Bai Xiude has a profound understanding and grasp of the world political situation and historical trends. The first-hand information Bai Xiude accumulated and preserved provides precious texts for the study of world history in the 20th century. For most of the 20th century and most of the world, Bai Xiude's experience and writings have a unique and charming brilliance. Individuality and history merged into one in his pursuit and exploration as a journalist, and became a legend.
