On The Front Line - The Collected Journalism of Marie Colvin

Marie Colvin, who was killed in shellfire on 22 February whilst covering the current uprising in Syria, was a fearless, passionate foreign correspondent, a veteran of many conflicts from around the world with a profound belief that reporting could curtail the excesses of brutal regimes and a powerful compulsion to go to places where bad things were happening. Often the first to arrive and the last to leave, her insistence on experiencing the risks of those she wrote about led to a vast portfolio of work for the Sunday Times - particularly on the Middle East, and on the human toll of war.
