A STATE OF WAR EXISTS

MICHAEL NICHOLSON

“The worst moment in a war was my fear I would not be sent to it.”

 

So wrote the young Michael Nicholson, a reporter whose astonishing career has covered eighteen major conflicts. Published to coincide with the thirtieth anniversary of the Falklands War,
A State of War Exists
sees the veteran journalist pondering what made him want to risk life and limb travelling to the most dangerous parts of the world, at the most dangerous times – over 200 journalists have been killed in the last three years alone. Was it machismo or masochism that encouraged him so compulsively and repeatedly to risk his life?
