About the Author:
Erik Durschmied was born in Vienna in 1930. After the Second World War he emigrated to Canada. A television war correspondent for the BBC and CBS, Durschmied covered every major crisis including Vietnam, Iran, Iraq, Belfast, Beirut, Chile, Cuba and Afghanistan. Winner of numerous awards, Newsweek wrote 'Durschmied is a supremely gifted reporter who has transformed the media he works in.' And in Le Monde: 'He's survived more battles than any living general.' He lives in Paris and Provence with his family.
Review:
Durschmied gets stuck straight into the gore * Express (Whisper of the Blade) * His vivid descriptions of battles explain all. * Choice, London (HINGE FACTOR) * This entertaining book considers the errors and incidents that have shaped the world as we know it rather than as we planned it might be. * The Times (HINGE FACTOR) * His tales of mayhem and confusion can be gripping, informative and genuinely idea-provoking. He reveals again and again, the casual impact of happenstance. * Independent (HINGE FACTOR) * Durschmeid brings an eye for the telling detail. * Independent (HINGE FACTOR) *
