Kluckhohn (November 24, 1907-October 2, 1970) was an author and journalist. Kluckhohn began his journalistic career with The St. Paul Dispatch becoming a general reporter at the paper. Joining The New York Times, he served as a correspondent reporting from over 70 countries between 1929 to 1947. Reporting on the Spanish Civil War, Kluckhohn was first to report on the German intervention when aircrews entered the hotel in Seville. During WWII, he reported from both the European and Pacific Theatres, including coverage of the Battle of Leyte Gulf. Kluckhohn along with Hugh Baillie, became the first American journalists to interview Emperor Hirohito. He then became an advisor to the Secretary of Defense and handled publicity for the Republican National Committee. He was an advisor to the Department of State and was on the staff of Congress. The Introduction to this seminal work opens with the assertion that "The heritage of President Johnson must be examined." The author further stated "For it is he who insisted that he would follow the domestic and foreign policies of his predecessor soon after he took the oath of office...It was he who is saddled with precisely the same advisers, speech writers and pundits who urged President Kennedy to change traditional American policies." The author stated that "President Lyndon Johnson must decide in what direction he will lead our national and the free world. Will it continue to be toward the goals urged by the men around Kennedy who today are Lyndon's Legacy? Or will it be more toward the Right? "
