Truly a great life, and what shines out of the book, amid the low cunning and tireless legwork, is Hersh's warmth and humanity. Essential reading for every journalist and aspiring journalist the world over' John le CarreIn the early 1950s, teenage Seymour Hersh was finishing high school and  university - while running the family's struggling dry cleaning store in  a Southside Chicago ghetto.\r\n\r\n Today, he is one of America's premier  investigative journalists, whose fearless reporting has earned him fame,  front-page bylines in virtually every newspaper in the world, a  staggering collection of awards, and no small amount of controversy.   Reporter  is the story of how he did it. It is a story of slog, ingenuity and  defiance, following Hersh from his first job as a crime reporter for the  Chicago City News Bureau, through his Pulitzer Prize-winning freelance  investigative exposes, to the heights of his reporting for The New York Times and the New Yorker.\r\n\r\n  It is a tale of night-time encounters with great Civil Rights leaders,  unauthorised meetings with Pentagon officials, raucous dinners with  Canadian soldiers in Hanoi, tense phone calls with Secretaries of State,  desperate to save face  of exposing myriad military and political  wrongdoing, from My Lai to Watergate to Abu Ghraib, and the cynical  cover-ups that followed in Washington and New York. Here too are  unforgettable encounters with some of the most formidable figures from  recent decades, from Saul Bellow to Martin Luther King Jr., from Henry  Kissinger to Bashar al-Assad.   Ultimately, in unfurling Seymour Hersh's life and career, Reporter tells a story of twentieth-century America, in all its excitement and darkness.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen possible we will add details of the items we are selling to help buyers know what is included in the item for sale.
