About the Author
Reviews
"One of the most fearless, determined and talented journalists ever to have covered wars."-Wall Street Journal
"[Gellhorn was] a heroine to generations of young women correspondents for her fight to get equal treatment and a place on the front lines with male colleagues." -New York Times
"Gellhorn felt her duty as a journalist was to bear witness . . . She told stories not of generals and politicians, but of powerless people-the victims of war."-NPR
"There is a hard, shining, almost cruel honesty to Gellhorn's work that brings back shellshocked Barcelona, Helsinki, Canton and Bastogne-the prelude and crashing symphony of World War II-with almost unbearable vividness."-Guardian (UK)
