John Gunther has been called with justice ‘the world’s foremost political reporter’, and his latest book can only confirm this opinion. He probably knows more about the political scene, in all its aspects, than anyone else, and his memories of people and events throw a unique and fascinating light on the history of the last thirty years. Procession, a mixture of appraisal and reminiscence, offers the reader a portrait gallery of extraordinary range and variety, and very few famous figures of the political world since 1930 are not represented.
Among the chapters devoted to pre-war days those on the three dictators, Hitler, Mussolini and Stalin, stand out, perhaps inevitably, but there are also inimitable sketches of Dollfuss, Masaryk, Trotsky and Ramsay MacDonald. Roosevelt and Churchill are there, as are Chiang Kai-Chek and Gandhi. And, coming to more recent times, Mr. Gunther recalls such diverse personalities as Tito, Nasser, Eisenhower, Nkrumah, Schweitzer, Adenauer, de Gaulle, Macmillan and Khruschev. It is perhaps ironical that his final chapter is devoted to an assessment of Sir Alec Douglas-Home and Harold Wilson, and his characteristically cool and well-informed views on these two opponents are highly important in the context of the present precarious political situation in this country.
A list of the men considered and evaluated in this book might give the impression that Procession is a mere catalogue. This is very far from the truth. Mr. Gunther has produced a brilliant and informative panorama of personalities and events which no student of politics or indeed anyone interested in modern history can afford to ignore.

L_I_Č_N_O______P_R_E_U_Z_I_M_A_NJ_E_:
Za kupovine ukupne vrednosti preko 2.000 dinara moguće lično preuzimanje u Cara Dušana u Novom Sadu. Ako je za pojedinačnu knjigu navedena samo opcija Pošta, lično preuzimanje samo te knjige nije moguće. U Novom Sadu moguća je lična dostava i plaćanje preko službe Eko-kurir (cena je 250-300 din).
STANJE KNJIGE:
Knjiga koju dobijate je ona koja je na slici. Ukoliko nije naznačeno da je knjiga nova ili nekorišćena, ponekad se desi da na predlistu stoji potpis, posveta ili pečat i da to nije navedeno u opisu. Ako vam takve stvari smetaju, pitajte me pre kupovine da proverim.
KOMUNIKACIJA:
Komunikacija ide isključivo preko Kupindo poruka, ne telefonom. Budite normalni.
POPUSTI, CENKANJE I SL.:
Cena je ta koja piše, molim vas da mi ne šaljete pitanja o poslednjoj i zadnjoj ceni.
SLANJE:
Knjige šaljem kao tiskovinu ili CC paket nakon uplate na račun. Pakujem ih bezbedno i pažljivo, dobijate ih u stanju u kojem su poslate. Poštarina za jednu pošiljku obično iznosi od 190 do 260 din, u zavisnosti od težine. Ne naplaćujem nikakve troškove pakovanja. Ako se odlučite za post ekspres, imajte u vidu da je ta usluga trenutno dvaput skuplja od tiskovine. Za četiri i više pojedinačno kupljenih knjiga (u to ne spadaju kompleti) ja snosim troškove poštarine. Potrebno je da uplatite/preuzmete knjigu u propisanom roku od 7 dana.
SUSEDNE ZEMLJE I INOSTRANSTVO:
Poštarina je za jednu knjigu visoka i okvirno se kreće od 10-15 eur za prvu i oko 7 eura za svaku dodatnu knjigu. Postoji mogućnost znatno isplativijeg slanja za teže pakete. Uplate PayPalom (+10%), direktno na devizni račun, Western Union ili Moneygram. Najbolje je da pre kupovine pitate koliki su troškovi dostave, jer su često veći od cene same knjige.
