Nicely put. And I'll admit it: Answering questions instead of asking them proved a tad. disconcerting.

The honor was mine, and I mean it. History is the nonfiction writer's highest calling, and Ian Toll and Jonathan Horn are perfect masters.
The afternoon that I sat at the same table as @IanWToll and @p_m_robinson. Thanks to @uncknowledge for recording it. @HooverInst @ScribnerBooks

Thanks for asking, but Lord no. Asking people to read my words is enough.

Thanks. I try to use the word every chance I get--and even at that it works out to only about once a decade.
@p_m_robinson Great use of the word 'truckle'.

I "liked" this post. (Somebody had to.).
I interviewed legendary interviewer and speechwriter @p_m_robinson (@HooverInst). I don't even know where to begin! . We discussed skiing with Bill Buckley, writing speeches for Reagan, and being a godfather to @peterthiel, @pmqrcq, and @brian_armstrong .
