Who did the first interview with the Shah of Iran? Clare Hollingworth. Who did the last interview all those years – 30 – 40 - years later, after he fell? Clare Hollingworth. And she was the only person he wanted to speak to. And that’s really the measure of the woman.”John Simpson CBE“It was her dispatches that alerted the British Foreign Office to the fact that Germany had invaded Poland in 1939. Many of us who have come afterwards, and the generations afterwards, look back and are proud to remember that it is not us pioneering. It’s them. It’s Clare and that band of women who really did it for us.”Christiane Amanpour CBE“She was the standard bearer of reporting at an age when it just was not usual, was not normal, to be female in a hostile environment, and she did it with complete panache and skill and success.

But her old trunk revealed that there was a lot of her life story that had gone unreported…From witnessing the first aerial bombing against England in the First War, through Hitlers Blitzkrieg, Clare’s résumé includes desert war in North Africa, civil war in Greece, terrorism in Jerusalem, and guerrilla warfare in Vietnam and Borneo.But this book is about both love and war - a moving story of Clares passion for life, but the tough compromises she had to make over personal relationships.It is a gripping story of a century-long journey from rural England, through wars and revolutions, right up to Britains final “End of Empire” in Hong Kong. Written superbly by Patrick Garrett, this personal look at his Great Aunt’s derring-do as a leading war reporter bursts with life, history and adventure, with a cast made of last century’s greatest and most controversial men. Mr Garrett tells us the story behind the story, and the result is often even more intriguing. An awe-inspiring read.
