A Stranger's Eye - a foreign correspondent's view of Britain

Keane, Fergal

1st edition, very clean, crisp, hardback copy of the book that accompanied the BBC series "Forgotten Britain" DJ very good, book looks unread. 218 pages. Keane is an acclaimed correspondent, known for his compassion as much as his keen reporter's eye. In 1999, in a change from his usual reporting territory, he travelled around Britain, talking to the "little" man, whether it be a heroin addict, or a Welsh farmer struggling to maintain a vanishing way of life. Fergal Keane is always passionate about his subject matter, and this book is no exception. "He is a great reporter not only because he writes so well and brings a sense of himself to his work, but also because he can arouse our fellow feeling for people who are otherwise current affairs items." - D. Telegraph
