For over thirty years, Mark Austin has covered the biggest stories
in the world for ITN and Sky News. As a foreign correspondent and
anchorman he has witnessed first-hand some of the most significant
events of our times, including the Iraq War, during which his
friend and colleague Terry Lloyd was killed by American 'friendly
fire', the historic transition in South Africa from the brutality
of apartheid to democracy, the horrors of the Rwandan genocide, and
natural disasters such as the Haiti earthquake and the Mozambique
floods. The stories themselves will be familiar to many people, but
less well known are the often extraordinary behind the scenes tales
of a newsman's life on the road; the problems encountered in some
of the most dangerous places on earth; the days when things go
badly wrong; the moments of high drama and raw emotion and, quite
often, the hilarious happenings the viewer never imagines and only
seldom sees. Based on decades of experience on the frontlines, this
candid and revealing memoir gives a startling insight into one
man's extraordinary career and lifts the lid on the world of
television news.
