Celebrating 160 years of reporting, this is an anthology of the headlines that the Telegraph made. The paper sent Stanley to Africa and George Smith to discover the Babylonian story of Noah on ancient tablets. The 22-year-old Churchill wrote from the North-West frontier at 5 a column, and Kipling from the front in the First World War. As well as showcasing the talents of many of these eminent correspondents, this book gives a fascinating picture of the way people lived and how news was reported.
