The best-selling biography of one of the world's greatest cine-cameramen and an extraordinary Australian. For over 20 years, journalist Neil Davis covered the conflicts in South East Asia. Always at the battle front, he brought enduring images of the full horror of modern war to the world. Ironically, in September 1985, having survived so much war, Neil Davis was killed filming an attempted coup in the streets of Bangkok. The last section of this audiobook contains the Neil Davis Tapes, which are Tim Bowden's original interviews and location recordings with Neil Davis.
