From 1956 to 1960 he worked at The New York Post but quit it due to persuasion to write a book about a Wall Street millionaire and his murder in 1955, called The Life and Death of Serge Rubinstein which came out two years later. In 1964 he published a book about Woodrow Wilson called When the Cheering Stopped: The Last Years of Woodrow Wilson and six years later published The Shattered Dream: Herbert Hoover and the Great Depression. Seven years later he wrote a book about Andrew Johnson called High Crimes and Misdemeanors: The Impeachment and Trial of Andrew Johnson which was followed by Lee and Grant: A Dual Biography in 1984 and the 1998 biography of John J. Pershing called Until the Last Trumpet Sounds: The Life of General of the Armies John J. Pershing.
