Thilo Mischke unterwegs zu den Rändern der Welt: Mit eindrücklichen Reisereportagen begibt sich Mischke auf die Suche nach Antworten auf einige große Fragen. Als Journalist hat Thilo Mischke weit über hundert Länder dieser Welt bereist.

Decía Carmen Laforet que la vida le interesaba en todos sus momentos, tanto en los malos como en los buenos. Por eso leía, viajaba, escribía y observaba los acontecimientos con el corazón revuelto, lleno de emociones que no dejaban de latir. En el centenario de su nacimiento, esta biografía recupera la voz de quien nunca quiso hacer lo que se esperaba de ella. Aquí se conjugan su certero retrato del ambiente de posguerra, sus análisis sobre la religión y la fe, y su alma, siempre errante, que, sin pertenecer a ningún sitio.

"Les personnes que je croise me regardent comme une vieille connaissance à laquelle elles associent deux images contradictoires : la présentatrice d'une émission qui fut célèbre il y a plus de vingt ans et qui demeure dans la mémoire collective ; la femme qui fit, à son corps défendant, des milliers de "unes" de journaux à l'occasion d'un scandale planétaire impliquant son mari. N'étant pas seulement l'une et ne me reconnaissant pas dans l'autre, je me suis finalement résolue à écrire mes Mémoires, après y avoir été longtemps réticente."

"Aquest audiollibre recorda la vida del meu avi, que és la història d'un temps, d'un país. És un homenatge a una generació sencera d'homes i dones que van sobreviure a una guerra quan eren nens i que ara han hagut de fer front a la pandèmia des de la residència geriàtrica. La compilació d'una vida que abraça gairebé la totalitat del segle XX m'ha portat per viaranys insòlits. He descobert secrets del meu avi, i també he entès millor algunes de les decisions que va prendre al llarg de la seva vida".

For nearly fifty years, Dave Lopez covered every major story in the Southland. The veteran news reporter was a nightly presence in LA living rooms on KCBS Channel 2 for a remarkable 48-year career on camera. General managers and news directors came and went in the unforgiving world of major market TV news, but Dave outlasted more than twenty regime changes.

Aquel mediodía del 25 de marzo de 1977, hace 45 años, Rodolfo Walsh llegó puntual a una cita que tenía programada en la esquina de las avenidas San Juan y Entre Ríos, en el centro de la ciudad de Buenos Aires. La reunión había sido confirmada respetando los códigos de seguridad de la clandestinidad: contraseñas secretas y chequeos telefónicos. No sabía que, en verdad, un operativo, que incluía un francotirador, lo estaba esperando para capturarlo.

Vir Sanghvi's has been an interesting life—one that took him to Oxford, movie and political journalism, television and magazines—and he depicts it with the silky polish his fans expect of him. In A Rude Life, he turns his dispassionate observer's gaze on himself, and in taut prose tells us about all that he's experienced and nothing more, for he's still a private man. He unhurriedly recounts memories from his childhood and college years, moving on to give us an understanding of how he wrote his biggest stories, while giving us an insider's view into the politics and glamour.

Vir 45 jaar het Freek Robinson die grootste nuusgebeure in die ou én nuwe Suid-Afrika eerstehands beleef. As TV-joernalis en nuusanker was hy ’n gereelde besoeker in miljoene Suid-Afrikaners se huise. In sy memoires deel Freek dit wat hy agter die skerms beleef het.

Herodotus, the fifth-century chronicler, scarcely figured in the curriculum when famed Polish writer and traveler Ryszard Kapuscinski attended university in the 1950s. Ryszard became a foreign correspondent who hoped to go abroad, perhaps to Czechoslovakia. Instead, he was sent to India—the first stop on a decades-long tour of the world. His only companion on his travels was a volume of Herodotus. In his journey across continents, Kapuscinski discovers his life's work: to understand and describe the non-Western world, in all its variety, through his still-virginal Western eyes.

Among the fabled tycoons of the Gilded Age—Carnegie, Rockefeller, Vanderbilt—is a forgotten figure: Mrs. Frank Leslie. For twenty years she ran the country’s largest publishing company, Frank Leslie Publishing, which chronicled postbellum America in dozens of weeklies and monthlies. A pioneer in an all-male industry, she made a fortune and became a national celebrity and tastemaker in the process. Diamonds and Deadlines reveals the unknown, sensational life of the brilliant and brazen “empress of journalism”.

As World War II approached, the six most powerful media moguls in America and Britain tried to pressure their countries to ignore the fascist threat. The media empires of Robert McCormick, Joseph and Eleanor Patterson, and William Randolph Hearst spanned the United States, reaching tens of millions of Americans in print and over the airwaves with their isolationist views.

Dana Brown was a 21-year-old college dropout playing in punk bands and partying his way through downtown New York’s early-'90s milieu when he first encountered Graydon Carter, the legendary editor of Vanity Fair. After the two had a handful of brief interactions (mostly with Brown in the role of cater waiter at Carter’s famous cultural salons he hosted at his home), Carter saw what he believed to be Brown’s untapped potential, and on a whim, hired him as his assistant

Jorge Zarza es uno de los reporteros con más prestigio internacional de México: sus coberturas respecto a un atentado terrorista, la tragedia humana ante un desastre natural o la voz rasgada de quienes sobreviven a un enfrentamiento armado confirman su rigor periodístico y su tenacidad para informar desde el lugar de los hechos.

In We Don't Know Ourselves, Fintan O'Toole weaves his own experiences into Irish social, cultural, and economic change, showing how Ireland, in just one lifetime, has gone from a reactionary "backwater" to an almost totally open society - perhaps the most astonishing national transformation in modern history. O'Toole narrates the once unthinkable collapse of the all-powerful Catholic Church, brought down by scandal and by the activism of ordinary Irish. He relates the horrific violence of the Troubles in Northern Ireland, which led most Irish to reject violent nationalism.

They were an astonishing group: glamorous, gutsy, and irreverent to the bone. As cub reporters in the 1920s, they roamed across a war-ravaged world, sometimes perched atop mules on wooden saddles, sometimes gliding through countries in the splendour of a first-class sleeper car. While empires collapsed and fledgling democracies faltered, they chased deposed empresses, international financiers and Balkan gunrunners, then knocked back doubles late into the night.
