Publisher Notes
A self-described hypochondriac and neat freak reveals how he stumbled upon the opportunity of a lifetime, a posting in Iraq as a journalist, where he was daily confronted with physical discomfort and life-threating situations. Reprint.
Media Reviews
"During Ayers's overlong account of his formative years as a young coward, he writes of a journalism teacher in London whose reportorial style captures 'the matey first-person persona of a pub raconteur.' Ayers has done well to borrow that persona for his memoir, and once in a while his descriptions actually take on a terse, Hemingwayesque brilliance."
First Line
The day, like most of my days in Iraq, got off to a bad start.
