My Paper Chase follows a newspaper editor's career from wartime Manchester through London to a reinvention in America. Praised across three continents and named a 2009 Notable Book by The New York Times, the memoir blends personal recollection with the broader history of print journalism.

The narrative covers leadership at major newspapers and a major publishing house, key investigative victories — from unmasking a Soviet spy to campaigning for thalidomide victims — and repeated confrontations with politicians, regulators and media magnates. It traces how newsrooms shaped public life.

Readable and reflective, the book offers behind-the-scenes insight into reporting and publishing and a reminder of the press's evolving role.
