He celebrated deeply meaningful anniversaries: the fortieth year of his marriage; the fortieth since his graduation from Yale; the thirty-fifth from \u003ci\u003eNational Review\u003c\/i\u003e, the magazine he founded, and then decided—to considerable shock—to retire from editing. In the year in which he became a senior citizen, he appeared, daringly, as a harpsichordist with two symphony orchestras; wrote a controversial book advocating voluntary national service, a proposal not calculated to endear him to his fellow conservatives; and endured the death of a close friend. Thus is completed (perhaps) the end of several affairs—and the capstone volume of a diarist-journal keeper-journalist, who has proved to be, over books at sea and on land (\u003ci\u003eCruising Speed, The Unmaking of a Mayor, Airborne, Atlantic High, Overdrive, Racing Through Paradise\u003c\/i\u003e), both his own Boswell and Johnson.","brand":"Lyons Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47206075498751,"sku":"9781493081448","price":24.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/Jacket_d785953c-a682-4503-adaa-459c6c909864.jpg?v=1770743823","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/products\/9781493081448","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
