Now, for the first time, the nation's most respected reporters share their stories as the eyes and ears of the nation to create a fascinating oral history. Some of the most influential journalists of our time, including Christiane Amanpour, Walter Cronkite, Morley Safer, Peter Arnett and Andy Rooney convey the facts, the brutality and the drama of warfare and examine issues such as censorship, propaganda, ethics, the power of the press, and the future of war reporting, especially after September 11th. In addition, they relay their own experiences as U.S. war reporters in a unique work of history.

Michelle Ferrari, writer of the PBS series Reporting America at War, has been creating innovative and critically acclaimed documentary narratives for more than a decade. She was the writer of the PBS special Out of the Past and the American Experience documentary Seabiscuit, which earned her a 2003 Primetime Emmy nomination. Her work also has been seen on HBO and Cinemax and has received honors from the Writers Guild of America, the Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Awards, and film festivals nationwide. She lives in New York City.

James Tobin won the National Book Critics Circle Award for his first book, Ernie Pyle’s War, and the J. Anthony Lukas Work-in-Progress Award for his biography of the Wright Brothers. He lives in Ann Arbor, Michigan.

Reviews

“The tremendous influence of journalists on the public reaction to the government handling of military affairs is evident here.”

“Valuable testimony on the sheer physical difficulties the war reporter must endure, difficulties that, during the Iraq wars, have only worsened because of the premium satellite-transmission reporting puts on getting anything, even the most random fragments, on the air.”

“Compelling.”
