Synopsis: 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.

Trade Paperback. Condición: Very Good. Siggins, Michael - Maps Ilustrador. First Printing. 507 Pages Indexed. Tight, square, thick book with some light age tanning to inside covers and top of pages that are not brittle. Beyond this is a book that has the feel of a book hardly used at all. Highly acclaimed for its fresh, intimate portrait of one of Canada's most enduring -- and most misunderstood -- legends, This book has become the reading choice of Canadians everywhere. The controversy surrounding Louis Riel has hardly abated since his execution for treason over a hundred years ago. He has been viewed harshly as an unrepentant traitor to Canada, a messianic prophet and a pathetic tyrant. In this intimate biography, Maggie Siggins uncovers the real Louis Riel-a complex man full of contradiction and angst, a charismatic visionary and poet, a humanitarian who gave up prestige and wealth to fight for the Metis people. Rich in texture and detail, this book is the story of a revolutionary in the making, centering on the people and events that molded him. Remarkable in his ability to straddle two cultures, native and white, and his vision of an equitable relationship between the two, Louis Riel continues to be relevant to a Canada that is only now coming to understand the uniqueness and value of native people. Illustrated with two center sections of black and white photographs.
