    Summary: 
    Clare Hollingworth, the legendary war correspondent. She was famous for getting the "scoop of the century" - the outbreak of the Second World War. But a lot of her life story was never unreported. From witnessing the first aerial bombing against England in the First War, through Hitler's Blitzkrieg, Clare's résumé included desert war in North Africa, civil war in Greece, terrorism in Jerusalem, and guerrilla warfare in Vietnam and Borneo. This book is about both love and war - a moving story of Clare's passion for life and the tough compromises she had to make over personal relationships. Patrick Garrett was born in Britain but has spent most of his working life abroad. His career in television news included work the BBC, CBS & NBC. This is his personal look at his Great Aunt's derring-do as a leading war reporter.
