The Good Fight: From Bullets to By-Lines - 40 Years Face-To-Face with Terror (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780717175727)

The year is 1969. It's the start of the Troubles in Northern Ireland. For Jim McDowell, it was the beginning of a life at the heart of one of world's most bitter conflicts. McDowell's career spanned 45 years as he fearlessly rose to editor of Northern Ireland's Sunday World, facing down threats and beatings to expose the stories of the criminal underworld. McDowell reveals what life is like when you're up close and personal with infamous drug dealers, what happened in a near-catastrophic incident with a royal aide during Queen Elizabeth's 1977 Belfast trip, and much more. 45 years. 21 death threats. Over 2,000 front pages.
