This collection of essays from Bernard Levin contains extracts from Levin's journalism, including topics from the Gulf War to Glyndebourne, profiles of Guttenberg and Piltdown Man. He puzzles over the laminated calling cards of prostitutes and condemns the moral thuggery of homosexual "outing". He poses those pressing questions - is Michael Heseltine "The Thing From Outer Space"? Would Jesus Christ have liked A.N. Wilson? Other books by the author include "Taking Sides", "Speaking Up", "The Way We Live Now", "In These Times", "Now Read On", "Enthusiasms" and "Conducted Tour". Three of Levin's travel books were the subjects of Channel 4 television series: "Hannibal's Footsteps", "To the End of the Rhine" and "A Walk Up Fifth Avenue".
