A selection of Letter from America broadcasts from the years 1982-2003, plus a tribute to Alistair Cooke. Such experience, wisdom & education are unlikely ever again to combine in one journalist Mark Lawson. Alistair Cooke was radio's great observer, the doyen of foreign correspondents & the world's most famous letter writer. From 1946 until 2004, he explained the Americans to the British through his weekly Letter ' From America', the longest-running one-man series in broadcasting history. It was always a virtuoso performance informed, informal, shrewd, funny & erudite. In this volume, Cooke reports on a varied selection of events, including the 1992 presidential election, the art of Charles Schulz & introducing Bernstein to Handel's Messiah. He remembers the infamous standoff over Cuba, which nearly caused a third world war, & recalls the more recent shocking events surrounding September 11th 2001 & the subsequent war on terror. Every event evokes a particular time & place, but Cooke's unique style of expression & analysis provides each with a resonance that echoes through the years.
