News from no man's land - Reporting the World - Poche

On 13 November 2001 John Simpson and a BBC news crew walked into Kabul and the liberation of the Afghan capital was broadcast to a waiting world. It was the end of a sustained campaign against the Taliban, a campaign that Simpson had covered from the beginning, despite appalling difficulties and, often, great danger. In News from No Man's Land John Simpson focuses on how journalists set about finding the stories that make the headlines. Like his previous books, it is rich in anecdote and filled with extraordinary encounters with remarkable individuals. This is quintessential Simpson: vivid, utterly absorbing and written with all the care and lucidity of his reporting style.
