   Extractions: A B C D ... Z by birthday from the calendar Credits and feedback Barbara Tuchman (1912-1989) - original surname Wertheim American writer, noted for her popular histories. Tuchman was praised for her lucid style, narrative power and portrayal of the protagonists in world dramas as believable human beings. Meaning, in Tuchman's view, emerges not from preconceived design but from the aggregation of details and events that fall into a pattern. Tuchman was a two-time winner of the Pulitzer Prize, whose subjects varied from the Trojan War to the Vietnam War, from description of medieval daily life to the portraits of world leaders of the First World War. "A phenomenon noticeable throughout history regardless of place or period is the pursuit of governments of policies to their own interests. Mankind, it seems, makes a poorer performance of government than of almost any human activity. In this sphere, wisdom, which may be defended as the exercise of judgment acting on experience, common sense and available information, is less operative and more frustrated than it should be. Why does holders of high office so often contrary to the way reason points and enlightened self-interest suggest? Why does intelligent mental process seem so often not to function?"

Her grandfather, Henry Morgenthau Sr., was Woodrow Wilson's Ambassador to Turkey and her father, Maurice Wertheim, was a banker, who bought

   Extractions: Home Ex Libris Authors : Barbara Tuchman telling it like it was Have you seen our weblog or our monthly book review? Tuchman never called herself a historian, but rather thought of herself as someone who wrote about history. She certainly wrote for the general reader rather than for academia, but her books are uniformly well-researched and readable. Her area of emphasis was the late 19th and early 20th centuries, though she went as far afield as the American Revolution ( The First Salute ) and the 14th century ( A Distant Mirror The Proud Tower concerns Europe at the end of 19th century.
