Product Description
Michael Nicholson's nightly reports from Bosnia alerted Britain and the world to the horrors of the war in the former Yugoslavia. But when the ITN war correspondent found 200 orphan children living unprotected on the outskirts of Sarajevo, in the path of the approaching Serbs, he could no longer watch and do nothing. Fired by anger and despair, he broke the cardinal rule of journalistic detachment. He forged the name of one of the children on his own pasport and smuggled her back to Britain to live with his family. For this 9-year-old girl it was the start of an exciting, sometimes bewildering, new life, a thousand miles away from the suffering and destruction of her homeland. Now, in this riveting book, Michael Nicholson tells the full story of her ordeal.
