Francis James Westbrook Pegler (1894-1969) was an American writer and journalist. He
was a popular columnist in the 1930s and 1940s who gained fame for his opposition to the
New Deal and labor unions. Westbrook criticized every president from Herbert Hoover to
Franklin D. Roosevelt and from Harry Truman to John F. Kennedy. He also criticized the
Supreme Court, the tax system and labor unions. As a result, he lost his contract in 1962 with
King Features Syndicate, owned by the Hearst Corporation, after he started criticizing
Hearst executives. His late writing appeared sporadically in publications that included the John
Birch Society's American Opinion. Toned. Lightly worn. Otherwise, fine condition.
