Stevenson

Russ told me, I remember, that he met Bacall during an Adlai Stevenson campaign.

Stevenson was struck by how information sometimes gradually came into focus for people.

Above the cliffs at Omaha Beach is the Normandy American Cemetery and Memorial, beautifully landscaped by Markely Stevenson.

A month before Kennedy was shot, Adlai Stevenson, the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, was assaulted in Dallas.

In one, Adlai Stevenson explains, like a displaced Mafia don, why he feels angry at JFK, whose career he helped to advance.

If this be so, might not the Cauldwell charter chest contain some references to their Stevenson tenantry?

Mr. Skinner says he “thinks Mr. Stevenson must be a very kind man”; he little knows me.

Turn back to the paragraph from Stevenson and notice how little there is to it when reduced to bare outline.

Stevenson knew well who was telling the story; David is too good a story-teller to tell what he could not know.

Yet when handled as Stevenson and Irving handled it, description assists in accenting the mood of the action.
