A unique work of history that examines the story of a pivotal figure in American life, the U.S. war reporter, with contributions from some of the most influential journalists of our time.

Whether dodging sniper fire, accompanying strategic bombing raids over enemy territory, challenging the Pentagon's version of events, or crossing the frontlines to interview figures at the heart of the conflict, war correspondents have served as the eyes and ears of the nation, conveying the facts, the brutality and the drama of warfare, and shaping public opinion in the process.

Now for the first time, in Reporting America at War, the nation's most respected reporters share their stories to create a fascinating oral history. Contributors include:

  • Christiane Amanpour
  • Peter Arnett
  • Malcolm Browne
  • Walter Cronkite
  • Gloria Emerson
  • Frank Gibney
  • David Halberstam
  • Chris Hedges
  • Ward Just
  • Andy Rooney
  • Morley Safer

In addition to telling their personal stories, the correspondents examine issues such as censorship, propaganda, ethics, the power of the press, and the future of war reporting, especially after September 11th.
