Following the best-selling first volume of his autobiography, Alan Whicker presents a hugely entertaining & characteristically insightful second volume that will delight his army of devoted fans. Throughout his years as Foreign Correspondent & then television's Man Around the World, Whicker has covered everything from wars & revolutions to plastic surgery & mudmen. His belief that you can ask anyone anything as long as you do it pleasantly gained him access to the elusive & the secret: voodoo rituals in Haiti, drug squads in Singapore, bank raids in San Francisco, ashrams in India, polar bears in Alaska, even the social fortress of Palm Beach. With instinctive curiosity & a nose for a great story, he has lived a life of adventure, excitement & danger, winning a raft of awards from peers & public.
