"Dispatches From the Edge"

by: Anderson Cooper

 

Follow the autobiography of one of America's favorite news anchors, as he tells first of growing-up in an American "royal" family, where he thought everyone's grandfather was immortalized with a statue, and then "comes of age" as a deep thinking reporter. Cooper, a member of the Vanderbilt family, had the choice of almost any career, but chose the perilous job of reporting some of the most dangerous happenings in the world, to the American public.

He gives an insider's view of war, famine, and a bird's eye, day by day happening of the Hurricane Katrina and its devastating aftermath. Follow Cooper into the "war zone" and almost feel the bullets "buzzing" past your head, and then float down the flooded streets of the New Orleans and Gulf Coast and find stories from the heart, about survival, rescue, and trying to rebuild.

Cooper takes you on a journey both personal and passionate, that you'll never forget, as he tells the up-front accounts of news in the making!

A great read by one of America's favorite news anchors.
