The stories cover journalists from Latin America, Bangladesh, the Philippines, Iraq and Russia.
What makes journalists brave and willing to take risks despite knowing the threat to their lives? In each case, there is a different answer. Lest we forget, there are brave and honest people in the world.
My only gripe with the book is that Terry Gould did not highlight the forces and incidents that made them change. These sometimes got lost in the stories of their lives. The detail is fascinating, but for a person far removed from the lives of these brave people, the tales can get tedious.
All in all, it is a fascinating book and one that deserves a wide reading.
