Letter from America : 1946-2004 Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

When Alistair Cooke retired in March 2004 and then died a few weeks later, he was acclaimed by many as one of the greatest broadcasters of all time.

His Letters from America, which began in 1946 and continued uninterrupted every week until early 2004, kept the world in touch with what was happening in Cooke's wry, liberal and humane style.

This selection, made largely by Cooke himself and supplemented by his literary executor, gives us the very best of these legendary broadcasts.

Over half have never appeared in print before. It is a remarkable portrait of a continent - and a man.
