He covered every big national story for a generation, from the landing of men on the moon to Watergate to the Vietnam War. He wrote an impressive biography of W. Averell Harriman. After retiring from the Times, Abramson became engrossed in projects in rural America. His 1996 book “Hallowed Ground: Preserving America’s Heritage” was about the Piedmont region of northern Virginia, where the Battle of Manassas was fought. Abramson also co-edited (with Jean Haskell) the “Encyclopedia of Appalachia” in 2006. Abramson was also among the group of journalists who helped found the Institute for Rural Journalism at the University of Kentucky and, later, the Daily Yonder. More
