Published to coincide with the release of the Miramax Film, the heart-breaking true account of how one reporter broke the rules of journalistic detachment & saved a Yugoslavian orphan from approaching Serbs. Michael Nicholson's nightly reports from Bosnia alerted Britain & 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 & do nothing. Fired by anger & despair, he broke the cardinal rule of journalistic detachment. He forged the name of one of the children on his own passport & 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 1000 miles away from the suffering & destruction of her homeland. Now, in this book, Michael Nicholson tells the full story of her ordeal. Is it about about propaganda? like: spreading/exporting democracy-Drang nach Osten?Somebody would see it this way:day by day report of the war. I was most interested in Natasha, which the description of the book lead me to believe and why I bought it. I skipped a lot of the extreme details of the war. I gave it three stars because it was written well, but thought it dragged on too much and was misleading since it went into such detail about the war. It could have been two books! I really just wanted to know about the little girl. Too much writing about the war there and I wanted to know more about life back in England
