Happy Birthday George F. Kennan: A Hodge Road ReminiscenceStuart MitchnerA magnum opus eighteen pages long? It must be a poem. Or perhaps something concise and mathematical. If it's the work of a Princeton scholar, it must be Einstein. Not so. The manuscript currently on display at Firestone Library, page by separate page in a series of glass-topped tables occupying the center of the main exhibition gallery, is a telegram sent to the U.S. State Department from Moscow in February 1946 by a diplomat attempting to tell "official Washington" the "whole truth" about the Soviet Union. The author is longtime Princeton resident George F. Kennan, who celebrated his one-hundredth birthday this past Monday. The occasion will be formally observed this Friday, February 20, in a day-long conference at the University, with opening remarks from Secretary of State Colin Powell.
