WAR JUNKIE
By Jon Steele
Jon Steele was addicted to war. Living for the adrenaline rush which comes as bullets fly around your head and bombs explode at your feet, his job as an ITN cameraman took him to many of the worst places on earth. His story is packed with action, unexpected humour and emotional honesty. By turns shockingly funny and profoundly disturbing, it packs a psychological punch which will challenge your assumptions about war, and the human capacity to inflict and endure suffering.

TROUBLE SHOOTER
by George Jesse Turner with Jeff Anderson
