A selection of Robert Fisk's finest 'Comment' pieces from the Saturday Independent.
Robert Fisk has amassed a devoted readership over the years, with his insightful, witty and always outspoken articles on international politics and mankind’s war-torn recent history. He is best known for his writing about the Middle East, its wars, dictators and international relations, but these ‘Comment’ articles cover an array of topics, from his soldier grandfather to handwriting to the Titanic – and of course, President Bush, terrorism and Iraq.
Robert Fisk is a bestselling author and journalist based in Beirut as Middle East correspondent of the ‘Independent’. He has lived in the Middle East for three decades and holds more British and international journalism awards than any other foreign correspondent. His last book, ‘The Great War for Civilisation’, a history of his career and the numerous conflicts he has covered, was published internationally to great critical acclaim. He is also the author of ‘Pity the Nation’, a history of the Lebanese war.
