In Search of Light: Broadcasts of Edward R. Murrow, 1938-61 - Softcover

Reseña del editor

Edward R. Murrow was America's greatest broadcaster. In Search of Light is both his permanent testament and a vivid public diary of a tumultuous era. It includes: his reports from the rooftops of wartime London, an American troopship in the Atlantic, a bomb run to Berlin, the gates of Buchenwald, the wedding of Queen Elizabeth, the Korean War, the civil rights revolution, the launches of the first rocket probes; his portraits of the great (Churchill, Eisenhower, Steven-son) and the lesser-known but equally heroic; his famous "See It Now" telecast that helped bring about McCarthy's downfall. These graceful, witty, and courageous broadcasts have set the standard for every journalist in the past half-century.
