Product Description Who had the biggest "I told you so" in American history? Find out in this comprehensive compendium of history's fools and sages. When Admiral Richardson advised FDR to pull back the Pacific Fleet from Pearl Harbor saying it was illprepared to thwart an attack by the Japanese, he was fired. Months later, FDR got the one of the biggest "I told you so's" ever recorded. In this book, historian Paul Jeffers (21, The Bully Pulpit), has compiled this and 17 more stories of men who ignored advisors' warnings, forged ahead and regretted it, as well as a few men who had the satisfaction of proving the naysayers wrong. About the Author H. Paul Jeffers is the author of 32 books including Commissioner Roosevelt; Bloody Business: An Anecdotal History of Scotland Yard; and Who Killed Precious? Jeffers was the only person to have been News Director of both of New York City's allnews radio stations; he was a broadcast newsman for 33 years; and he has taught journalism and writing at NYU, Syracuse, BU, and CCNY.
