Battling for News by Anne Sebba
Ranging from Miss Wreford in Italy at the time of the Risorgimento and Lady Florence Dixie in South Africa during the Boer War to mould-breakers such as Clare Hollingworth, Virginia Cowles and Martha Gellhorn in the 1930s to Kate Adie in Yugoslavia and Tienanmen Square in the 1990s, the author recounts the development of the woman reporter.

She has written a number of books including Jennie Churchill: Winstons' American Mother, The Exiled Collector: William Bankes and the Making of an English Country House, Laura Ashley: A Life by Design, Enid Bagnold and Battling for News: Women Reporters from the Risorgimento to Tiananmen Square.
