This is the rollicking, poignant, dramatic story of the distinguished former editor-in-chief of the Atlantic Monthly, to whom his profession was not only a high calling but a way of "being paid to have fun". Once picked up, there is no escaping this book. Reading The Swamp Root Chronicle is as much fun as living it was for Manning. Photos.
