Omschrijving
Editor: A Memoir by Max Hastings is the definitive inside story of newspapers.
Much excellent gossip, some of it wildly indiscreet. Hastings is a brilliant reporter.
The acuity of his insights make this book a wholly compelling read.
An important as well as an enjoyable book.

In his youth he was a foreign correspondent for newspapers and BBC television. He has won many awards for his books and journalism, particularly his work in the South Atlantic in 1982.
