Monbulk RSL Sub BranchBook, John Pilger, Heroes, 1986
The bestselling book from one of the finest investigative journalists of our time. The heroes of John Pilger's narrative are the many ordinary people he has witnessed coping with their lives in difficult and often brutal conditions- dissidents in the Soviet Union; victims of conflicts in Vietnam, Cambodia, Africa, India, the Middle East and Central America. They also include the Irish labouring generation of his great-great-grandfather, transported in irons to Australia for uttering 'unlawful oaths'. It is a vivid, engrossing and sometimes blackly amusing personal story covering the periods for which his journalism is renowned. John Pilger has witnessed many of the major world upheavals of the past thirty years, as well as the daily realities of injustices normally hidden from society's view. His reporting of these events has always been distinguished by his tenaciously researched facts - especially facts that governments and powerful interests would prefer to keep secret - and by his unerring and always compassionate pursuit of the truth. Highlights the silence of early historians about violent conflict; discusses contemporary issues; includes interviews with B. Randall and C. Perkins.Ill, index, p.194.non-fictionThe bestselling book from one of the finest investigative journalists of our time.
