'The bombshell book everyone is talking about' DAILY MAIL 'A radio
genius ... the maestro of the show' EVENING STANDARD As presenter
of Radio 4's Today, the nation's most popular news programme, John
Humphrys was famed for his tough interviewing. He has been at the
heart of journalism for decades. Now, he offers his life story from
the poverty of his post-war childhood in Cardiff, leaving school at
fifteen, to the summits of broadcasting. Along the way, he recalls
the experiences that have marked him most: being the first reporter
at the terrible disaster in Aberfan, reporting from South Africa in
the dying days of apartheid, from Ireland during the Troubles, and
from the White House on Richard Nixon's historic resignation. With
his trademark tenacity and no punches pulled, John also weighs in
on the controversies of his career, the role and limitations of the
BBC, and the broader health of political debate today. He hopes
you'll tune in.
