Lynn, Commentary) In the summer of 1900, just before her seventh birthday, a little girl stood in her parents’ house in Tonawanda, New York, and watched the approach of a killer cyclone. “Are we going to die?” she cried, and her father, a Methodist minister, replied as he always replied in crises, “We are in the hands of God.” Through all the vicissitudes of a cyclonic century, Dorothy Thompson was sustained by her father’s faith and uplifted by his example. As she declared in 1957, her political philosophy was grounded “in the Evangelium”—in “those precepts of respect for truth, mercy, forgiveness, humility, and charity, taught and admonished by Him whom I do not hesitate to call the Lord and Savior of my soul”—while her work as an opinion-maker was a secular form of preaching. “There is only one effective revolution,” she told the graduating class at Syracuse in 1937, “and that is the revolution represented by the evangelical idea of conversion: that men see where they have been wrong; that a light dawns upon them; and that they change their ways.” -REVIEW: of American Cassandra (Kirkus) -REVIEW: of American Cassandra (Geoffrey C.
