Description
A memoir of chain-smoking newspapermen, union leaders, revolutionaries, and ordinary working people, Alex Mitchell's story is a vivid account of his life and loves, set against the backdrop of politics and investigative journalism. Mitchell's experiences, including his work on several newspapers around Australia and his time on Fleet Street in the 1960s, are full of anecdotes about the people he met and the stories he uncovered. As a political journalist, Mitchell's Sunday Times investigative team exposed a Soviet double agent, and he became a full-time political activist. In this narrative, Mitchell lays bare his life, politics, and past with the flair of a born storyteller, asking the hard questions about the world and about himself.
