Little, Brown and Company, 1991-02-25. Hardcover. Very Good. 9x6x1. Signed. Inscribed by Georgie Anne Geyer on front end page. Hardcover and dust jacket. Shelf wear. Bookplate. *Autographed by author.* <br> "Georgie Anne Geyer was a longtime foreign correspondent who chased after the world's most despotic leaders while clearing the way for a future generation of women journalists who'd largely been excluded from the male-dominated foreign press corps. First as a reporter in Chicago, then as a syndicated columnist whose work appeared in the Los Angeles Times and scores of other publications, Geyer seemed to live a life of adventure, trooping through the hills of Guatemala with guerrilla fighters, held by Palestinian commandos who believed she was a mysterious foreign agent known as the Israeli Blonde, locked up by jittery government officials in Angola. Geyer interviewed autocrats, strongmen and fiery revolutionaries. Fidel Castro, she told the Chicago Tribune, was sweet, though 'essentially incoherent,' while Libya's Moammar Kadafi seemed nothing more than 'a desert boy.' Saddam Hussein, she said, was mysterious, his intentions hidden behind his 'hooded eyes.' Georgie Anne Geyer broke gender barriers as hard-charging foreign correspondent." - Los Angeles Times Obit.
