Format: 4

A delightful book of memoir from one of Britain's most beloved journalists. Deedes met Evelyn Waugh in 1935, when both were in Abyssinia to cover a war which many in England regarded with bewildered indifference but which profoundly influenced an impending global conflict. Whilst Deedes was principally concerned with filing copy to London, the author of Brideshead Revisited had another agenda and another novel in mind, Scoop.
