In the 1976 edition of the book, Sevareid wrote, "It was a lucky stroke of timing to have been born and lived as an American in this last generation. It was good fortune to be a journalist in Washington, now the single news headquarters in the world since ancient Rome.

During the middle and the end of 1950s, Sevareid found himself on television as the host and science reporter of CBS's <i>Conquest</i>.
