Linda S. (GoneToTheDogs) reviewed on 1/14/2007 + 625 more book reviews

this ISBN number is for a HARDBACK, not PB -- Philip Knightly puts together an exciting and informative history of the war correspondent. Stripping away the romanticism that such an occupation attracted, Knightly shows the grimmer side of covering wars, from having dispatches censored to being a willing collaborator in a conflict. He concentrates from the American Civil War to the Falkland Conflict.
