Dispatches from Time magazine correspondents: second series, 1956-1968.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/79093630

Education is the predominant subject, but there are many dispatches on other, mostly domestic political subjects.

The "story suggestions" from the Washington bureau continue through these years.
