The Mammoth Book of Journalism by Jon E Lewis
The newspaper has recorded and influenced modern history like nothing else on earth. From The Washington Post's exposure of Watergate, Tom Wolfe's 1960's social documentary in The Electric Cool-Aid Acid Test to Robert Fisk uncovering the slaugher at Chatila, all the articles included here are reportage from the frontline of life. The 100 dispatches collected here are reports which have caught most vividly the greatest events of the twentieth century, the editorials which have changed our thinking, the criticisms which have penetrated most deeply into contemporary culture. Most of all, they offer a snapshot of these modern times.
Jon E. Lewis is a historian and regular author and editor of Mammoth titles. His collection of first-hand accounts from history, The Mammoth Book of How it Happened, has sold over 25,000 copies in the UK alone. He lives in Herefordshire with his wife and two children.
