THE VIEW FROM THE VALLEY OF HELL Four Years in the Middle East by Mark Willacy

I'm a sucker for a foreign correspondent memoir and this looks like a ripper: the author was stationed in the Middle East for ABC TV and reported from Israel, Palestinian Territories, Syria, Jordan, Morocco, Iran, Iraq, Lebanon, Turkey, Kuwait, United Arab Emirates, Bahrain and the Persian Gulf.

Book is in very good condition: clean with light reading wear and age. See photos for cover blurb and sample page(s). The book in the photos is the actual book you will receive - we never use stock pictures - enjoy!

Synopsis: Australian journalist describes his four years in the Middle East as the ABC's Middle East Correspondent. From 2002 to 2006, his Jerusalem apartment sat perched over the Hinnon Valley, the Biblical 'valley of hell'-aptly symbolic. From the horror of witnessing suicide bombing carnage first-hand, to clandestine interviews with some of the most-wanted terrorist leaders, to surreal cricket matches played behind concrete blast walls in Baghdad, Mark captures the human dimension of the Middle East's tragedies. He was nominated for Walkley awards for his coverage of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
