Cyrus Leo Sulzberger II (1912 - 1993) was a U.S. journalist, author, and a member of the family that owns the New York Times. During the 1950s/60s, he was that newspaper's lead foreign correspondent. Cy, as he was commonly called, joined the family paper in 1939 and was soon covering stories overseas as Europe edged toward World War II. Among the reporters who worked for him during the war were Drew Middleton and James Reston. He wrote two dozen books in his lifetime. Because of the circles he traveled in, he sometimes carried messages from one foreign leader to another; for U.S. President John F. Kennedy he conveyed a note to Soviet premier Nikita Khrushchev in 1961. It is said that he was closest to President Charles de Gaulle. The American Heritage Picture History of World War II presents the most comprehensive mosaic ever assembled of the mightiest conflict of all time. In more than 720 great photographs and color pictures, in a superlative narrative by C. L. Sulzberger, and in dozens of eyewitness accounts -- here is the essence and the drama and the real look of World War II.
