Description:
London: Harper Collins, 2005. A Fine unmarked copy with Fine dustjacket which is not price clipped. First edition, first printing. xvi + 396 pages. 31 illustrations. The award winning journalist's memoir is the account of an extraordinary journey, a story about bearing witness to horror but also confronting the ghosts within. At its heart is the story of a son's journey in search of his father and the reconciliation that is possible even after death. Keane's life as a leading war reporter is all that we imagine: journeys across landscapes traumatised by death and hunger, encounters with some of the most evil figures of the last half-century. Life in such vulnerable areas of the globe is emotionally draining, but can be illuminated with astonishing moments of camaraderie and human bravery, and so this is also a memoir of the human connections. C3B. First Edition. Hard Cover. Fine/Fine. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.

London: Hutchinson, 1999. A near Fine unmarked copy which has one small dent to side withVG dustjacket. The veteran journalist and interviewer puts into context the changes that have taken place in Britain over some 40 years that he has been a journalist. He asks whether we are happy as a nation with the changes and although we are better off he believes that there is one voice which is dominant, that of consumer populism, which is the increasing commercialisation, but also media pressure, with the result of a coarsening of the fabric of our daily lives. This is his first book and he poses very relevant questions for today. *** NOT EX LIB *** C3A. First Edition. Hard Cover. Near Fine/Very Good. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.

'It's only a bloody game!'. Thus Magnus Magnusson's words of reassurance at the start of every 'Mastermind' programme, in an attempt to cheer up the nervous contestants as they awaited the ordeal of the Black Chair. But Mastermind, of course, was more than a game: it was a national institution, a must for millions of viewers for 25 years, and when the BBC announced that it was coming to an end it made front page news. In this fascinating and revealing book the Interrogator himself, Magnus Magnusson, tells the behind-the-scenes story of a television programme which made broadcasting history, drawing on the memories and records of the Mastermind Club - an exclusive haven for the survivors of the Black Chair. 24.
