The Journalist - By Jos Scharrer

Softcover first edition 2014. The wraps are lightly worn, handled and dog-eared, and the front one lifts away from the pages. There is some shelf-soil to the bottom external page corners, and bumps to others on the corner. There is an ownership stamp on the title page, that has also been signed by the author. "This is the story of a woman who forged a successful journalism career - in the misogynistic nineteenth century. This is also the story of an arch-imperialist who supported a plot to claim an African country for the British Empire, as well as the tale of a humanitaria who organised care for 250,000 Belgian refugees in the dark ages of WWI. Welcome to the remarkable life of Flora Shaw." The Jameson Raid - The Klondike Gold Rush - The Anglo Boer War - The Founding Of Nigeria
