WAR JOURNALISM AND HISTORY KARTONIERT (TB)

War  Journalism and History is the first published work to examine an eclectic mix of
correspondents during the two world wars who were prepared  often at great personal cost  to
inform the public about the obscenity of warfare. Throughout both world wars the lack of
credible information being dispatched from fighting fronts to the home front led to the
creation of an information vacuum. The void was filled by war correspondents: the heroes 
sometimes anti-heroes  of news reporting. This edited volume examines the lives and works of
maverick war correspondents such as Richard Dimbleby  Vasilii Grossman  Ellis Ashmead-Bartlett
Albert Londres  Vera Brittain  and others who  whether through the use of pen or camera 
typewriter or radio  tried to secure the integrity of wartime reporting and accurately record
history in the making.
