Kenneth Love, the former New York Times correspondent in Cairo and Tehran, died May 13, 2013. He was 88. His Suez: The Twice Fought War is a gem. The book remains a riveting and invaluable account of the 1956 Suez war and the June war of 1967. He had impressive contacts in Egypt, and he was a master of wonderfully researched reportage. I admired his talent.
