Martha Gellhorn was a fearless war correspondent for nearly fifty
years and a leading journalistic voice of her generation. From the
Spanish Civil War in 1937 through the wars in Central America in
the mid-eighties, her candid reporting reflected her deep empathy
for people no matter their political ideology, and the openness and
vulnerability of her conscience. "I wrote very fast, as I had to,"
she says, "afraid that I would forget the exact sound, smell,
words, gestures, which were special to this moment and this place."
Whether in Java, Finland, the Middle East, or Vietnam, she used the
same vigorous approach. Collecting the best of Gellhorn's pieces on
foreign conflicts and now with a new introduction by Lauren Elkin,
The Face of War is what the New York Times called "a brilliant
anti-war book" and has become a classic.
