About Robert Shaplen Books

Robert Shaplen (1917-1988) began reporting in the Pacific theater during World War Two and became one of America's most influential experts on East Asia in the postwar era. He was Far East correspondent for the New Yorker from 1962 to 1978, and remained a New Yorker staff writer for the rest of his life. He published ten books, including one novel and one story collection. Free Love (originally titled Free Love and Heavenly Sinners) was his only foray into nineteenth-century American history.
