... what Chris Hedges says about John Timpane. (Hat tip, Dave Lull.)
To wit:
"John Timpane, without question the finest editor I have ever worked with, did the final edit of the book. John combines the rare talents of being able to line-edit in detail and then step back and take apart the central argument with stunning and penetrating insight. He has a towering intellect, but more importantly is a lover of books and a great friend. I write into my book contracts that John, and John alone, will be the last person to edit my work. I would not want to do this without him."
And this despite being a vegetarian.
