Mary Deckers clash with Zola Budd at the 1984 Los Angeles Games is one of the biggest & most controversial events in Olympic history.

In a head-to-head that gripped the imagination of the world, the 3000 metres race pitted the experienced & glamourous world champion from the host nation against a prodigious, teenage waif from South Africa wearing a hastily-organised British flag on her vest &, memorably, no shoes on her feet.

Disastrously, a mid-race collision saw Decker tumble to the inside of the track after her legs tangled with Budds as the 18-year-old overtook the American in a battle for pole position.

Distraught & unable to carry on, the tearful Decker watched in frustration as Maricica Puica of Romania stormed to gold while Budd, who was heavily booed by the partisan crowd in the closing stages, faded to seventh.

Colonel Gadaffi's Hat is both a gripping & deeply moving account of the Libyan uprising from the lone journalist who was able to report from the rebel army convoy that captured Green Square, in the heart of Tripoli. Alex Crawford's daring reports were beamed across news networks from around the globe, & against a dramatic backdrop of celebratory gunfire, Alex & her team showed the world the final symbolic moments of the fall of a regime that had held power for more than 40 years. The euphoria & chaos of that atmosphere of jubilation was soon overcome by the realities of conflict, & the story of the following days that Alex so viscerally tells in this remarkable account is an eye-opening journey full of human stories that are both shocking & touching. A portrait of the last gasps of Gaddafi's regime, Crawford's book is an extraordinary insight into modern political conflict & the nature of journalism. The first journalist to be on the scene at a number of key points in the Libyan conflict, Alex has been arrested, shot at, tear gassed & interrogated in the course of her career, & paints a fascinating picture of war journalism. A heart-stopping ride through a dramatic moment in modern history, Colonel Gadaffi's Hat is a window into both the craft of journalism & the amazing story of Libya's road to Freedom. ...
