Luminary journalists Ed Murrow, Martha Gellhorn, Walter Cronkite,
and Clare Hollingworth were among the young reporters who
chronicled World War II's daily horrors and triumphs for Western
readers. In this fascinating book, Ray Moseley, himself a former
foreign correspondent who encountered a number of these journalists
in the course of his long career, mines the correspondents'
writings to relate, in an exhilarating parallel narrative, the
events across every theater-Europe, Pearl Harbor, North Africa, and
Japan-as well as the lives of the courageous journalists who
doggedly followed the action and the story, often while embedded in
the Allied armies. Moseley's broad and intimate history draws on
newly unearthed material to offer a comprehensive account both of
the war and the abundance of individual stories and overlooked
experiences, including those of women and African-American
journalists, which capture the drama as it was lived by reporters
on the front lines of history.
