Brief Encounters
by Chambers (9780550103505)

This informative and entertaining look at our past and present explores the pleasantries, pardons, interrogations and arguments that have passed between the likes of Jackie Kennedy and Princess Diana, Lew Wallace and Billy the Kid, Osama Bin Laden and John Simpson, and JS Bach and Frederick the Great. The meetings in this book offer a unique perspective on brief moments in our history. As Donald Rumsfeld (whom we also encounter in the book) would perhaps put it, this is stuff as it happened, and we are all interested in stuff.
