It's OK! I'm from the Daily Mail

by Richard Shears

Richard Shears, a foreign correspondent, has covered stories all over the world. From Yellowknife in Canada, to the African continent, the tiny island of Mog Mog in the Pacific and the Antarctic circle. Working at the Daily Mail, first as a staffer in London and New York and then as an Australian-based correspondent – the most extraordinary stories have come his way. No politics, very little sport, but more murders, mysteries and mayhem than you can poke a stick at. And there were wars, conmen, the Royals, celebrities, killers, victims, babies, medical breakthroughs, disappearances and reappearances, miraculous survivals, animals and so many assignments that were just darned good fun.

His assignments, one of which has resulted in him being awarded a prestigious UK Press award for foreign reporting, have included wars all over the world, among them the conflicts in Iraq, Afghanistan and East Timor.

This book is a collection of his most interesting stories, anecdotes and adventures as a journalist.
