"The sheer excellence of its reporting is unwavering."--Financial Times Each week, the BBC's flagship programme From Our Own Correspondent reaches over 100 million people through the radio and internet. Collected here are 94 of its most notable dispatches: Misha Glenny tells a story of love and death set in Davos while John Simpson reports on the event which reminded him that human life is priceless. Also included is Alan Johnston's moving piece about his kidnap in Gaza. Mark Tully returns to celebrate India's sixtieth birthday and Allan Little takes to the skies in the world's worst airlines. A president steps in when Damian Grammaticas is robbed in the Caucasus while Alastair Leithead joins a doctor from Sussex on a mission in distant Afghanistan. Surprising, thought-provoking and often humorous, these pieces offer a unique chances to explore strange and remote corners of the world without leaving home.
