Twenty Tales from the War Zone: The Best of John Simpson (Quick Reads)

Pan Books

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 this, his third riveting volume of autobiography, John Simpson focuses on how journalists set about finding the stories that make the headlines. It is quintessential Simpson: vivid, utterly absorbing and written with all the care and lucidity of his reporting style. 'Great stories told with great gusto...an easy and rewarding read' Jon Snow, Daily Mail

In this devastating and brilliant new book John Simpson offers a compelling and cogent analysis of the West`s relationship with Saddam Hussein and Iraq, past and present. `You can`t really argue with much that John Simpson says-there is no foreign correspondent left on TV who has a fraction of his recognition and his credibility, a fact which may be unfair on the others, but happens to be true. ` That was Simon Hoggart reviewing Simpson`s devastating Panorama profile of Saddam Hussein, broadcast in early November 2002. This riveting, important and timely new book is the summation of more than twenty years covering Saddam Hussein`s Iraq. The War Against Saddam offers, in five acts, the full story of his rise to power and the West`s relationship with Saddam throughout his dictatorship. The fifth act will draw on Simpson`s first-hand experience of the 2003 war in Iraq, in what will be a major work of serious reportage and essential reading for us all.

Not Quite World's End: A Traveller's Tales(Signed)

Through many decades of groundbreaking journalism, John Simpson has become not only one of the most recognisable and trusted British personalities, but has transferred his skill to books with multiple bestselling success. With his new book he turns his eye to how Great Britain has been transformed by its free press down the years. He shows how, while the press likes to pretend it's independent, they have enjoyed the power they have over the events they report and have at times exercised it irresponsibly. He examines how it changed the world and changed itself over the course of the last hundred years, from the creation of the "Daily Mail" and the first stokings of anti-German sentiment in the years leading up to the First World War, to the Sun's propping up of the Thatcher government, and beyond. In this self-analysis from one of the pillars of modern journalism some searching questions are asked, including whether the press can ever be truly free and whether we would desire it to be so. Always incisive, brilliantly readable and never shy of controversy, "Lies Like Truth" sees John Simpson at the height of his game as one of Britain's foremost commentators.
