Download or read book The Remarkable Life of Dr. Armand Hammer written by Bob Considine and published by HarperCollins Publishers. This book was released on 1975 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Considine's writing style goes onto any subject like a piece of contact paper on furniture, and with about as profound an effect. His biography of the Occidental Petroleum (""Oxy"") sultan--a self-made millionaire who engineered grain deals with Lenin, sold the Hearst art collection to the great unwashed in Gimbels, collected the finest herd of Black Angus Aberdeens in America, and finally turned his attention to oil at the age of fifty-nine--prudently masks all individuality with a thin film of unconvincing hagiography. Dr. Hammer (no relation to the baking-soda company) got waylaid by other interests on the way to a medical career; he was starting pencil factories in the USSR and collecting icons long before America recognized the Red government (or the Soviets recognized the value of their art heritage). He cornered the market on barrel staves just in time for the end of Prohibition, made forays into the grain alcohol, potato alcohol, and both bonded and blended bourbon markets, and found time for public-spirited gestures like buying Campobello to donate it to the U.S. and Canadian governments. Much is made here of Hammer's multimillion-dollar art collection and of his hobnobbings with the great. Not the slightest mention is made of a 1974 disagreement with the IRS about alleged overvaluation of art works Hammer used as charitable donations for tax purposes, or those other nasty allegations about channeling illegal contributions to Nixon's 1972 campaign through Governor Tim Babcock of Montana. The few legal squabbles Considine does mention are of course all due to the greed, malice, or underhandedness of others, and the disastrous slump in Oxy's stock since 1972 is blandly attributed to a tactless remark by the Secretary of Commerce pooh-poohing the huge fertilizer deal being negotiated between Oxy and the Russians. An instructive exercise in bowdlerization." --AbeBooks.com.

Book excerpt: As one of the first American photographers to set foot on Japanese soil at the end of World War II, even before Japan had officially surrendered, John Swope experienced and recorded a critical, peculiar, and fragile moment in the history of Japan and a war-torn world. His powerful photographic essay is complemented by a 144-page letter that he wrote to his wife, the actress Dorothy McGuire, which describes, in detail, his experiences and emotional reactions to all that he saw and photographed. Swope went to Japan as part of the elite team of Edward Steichen Naval photographers to document the release of Allied prisoners of war, but he went far beyond his official duties. During a three-and-a-half week period he took photographs that vividly convey the impact of World War II on the local population and the land, as well as the Allied prisoners. Having visited Japan fifteen years before as a young man, Swope struggled in 1945 with the numerous contradictions he observed and felt. His photographs, together with his words, convey a poignant, highly personal view of this world in limbo expressing a great sense of humanity and sensitivity for people on both sides of the conflict. The book honors Swope's original intention of bringing together his photographs with the letter he wrote to his wife; individual images are juxtaposed with short excerpts. The book presents 114 color plates and gives insight into Swope's larger pursuit of capturing the universal human experience by also including highlights from his work as a Hollywood photographer, from his Life magazine career, and from his international travels from the 1930s to the 1970s.
