Keywords: Afghanistan, Kabul, Taliban, BBC news, News, Man, Land
Author: John Simpson
Publisher: Pan Macmillan Publishers Ltd.

Description
On November 13th 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.
