The compelling autobiography of one of the great and most committed
newsmen of our time: full, frank, and occasionally very funny, Jon
Snow's memoirs are as revealing about the great and the not-so-good
as about his own passionate involvement in the reporting of world
affairs. Jon Snow is perhaps the most highly regarded newsman of
our time; his qualities as a journalist and as a human being - his
passion, warmth, intelligence, frankness and humour - are widely
recognised and evident for all to see most nights on Channel 4 News
and now in the pages of his first book. His vivid personal
chronicle is filled with anecdotes and pithy observations, and
delightfully records his life and times since becoming a journalist
in the early 1970s. He reported widely on Cold War conflicts in
Iran, Iraq, Afghanistan, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Angola and Central
America before becoming a resident correspondent in Washington D.C.
in the 1980s, and he has met and interviewed most of the world's
leaders. Drawing lessons from these experiences, he has pertinent
things to say about how the increasing world disorder came about
following the fall of the Berlin Wall; how the West's constant
search for an enemy has helped unhinge the world; and how and why
the media have, in general, been less than helpful in drawing
attention to key political and global developments.
