Excerpted from The Library Journal: This is the third and final volume of a corporate history written by Time Inc. employees and relying primarily on Time Inc. sources.

Important events of the period include the death of founder Henry Luce and LIFE magazine, the founding of People, success of Sports Illustrated, corporate merger with Temple Industries, coverage of the Kennedy assassination, and the Howard Hughes hoax. Lucidly written and careful with detail, this is still an insider's official history: not ducking controversy but treating it with what outsiders might call tact.
