Read full article: Posthumous memoir by Sargent Shriver scheduled for JanuaryNEW YORK The late Sargent Shriver, the Peace Corps' founding director and an architect of President Lyndon Johnson's War on Poverty, left behind at least one unfinished project. RosettaBooks announced Tuesday that it had acquired Shriver's memoir We Called It a War, which he worked on in the late 1960s and was only recently rediscovered. Klebanoff is a close friend of Bill Josephson, who was the Peace Corps' founding general counsel and wrote the book's foreword. Shriver published a 1964 book, Point of the Lance, about his years with the Peace Corps, and books about him include a memoir by his son, Mark Shriver, and an acclaimed biography by Scott Stossel. We Called It a War was spotted among his personal papers at the Sargent Shriver Peace Institute.
