An Intrepid War Correspondent's 50 Year Odyssey
Al J. Venter
Über dieses Buch
The world's oldest still-active war correspondent shares the real stories behind half a century of headlines from the front lines. The world's oldest still-active war correspondent Al J. Venter has reported from the front lines for well over half a century, witnessing the horrors humanity visits upon itself in twenty-five conflict zones across Africa, the Middle East, and Central Asia.
In this memoir, Venter masterfully recounts his experiences, sharing the real stories behind the headlines and the sharp lessons he learnt that enabled him to survive his countless exploits, ranging from exposing a major KGB operative in Rhodesia entirely by accident, and accompanying an Israeli force led by Ariel Sharon into Beirut, to gun-running into the United States.
