Different Country, Different State - On the Road with James Blunt

Zusatztext 'This uproarious account by the grizzled former foreign correspondent and old family friend...will raise a few eyebrows' Informationen zum Autor Peter Hardy has spent much of his long career as a foreign correspondent and travel writer reporting from distant corners of the world for The Daily Telegraph, Daily Mail, Daily Express, and London Evening Standard. In the 1960s he lived briefly as a hippy in San Francisco, becoming the friend and lover of Janis Joplin. His colourful life has not been without some landmark mishaps - as a small child he lost an eye to a bow-and-arrow, and while reporting in Idi Amin's Uganda he narrowly escaped execution after receiving a death sentence for espionage. More recently, he was seriously injured in a tragic accident while ski mountaineering in the French Alps. But despite it all, he claims that travelling with James Blunt has undoubtedly been his most dangerous assignment to date. Peter is the editor of the website welove2ski.com and its sandy sister welovethebeach.com. When not travelling to concerts, mountains or beaches he lives in Hampshire with his wife and children. Klappentext BIOGRAPHY & AUTOBIOGRAPHY / Entertainment & Performing Arts Zusammenfassung This is life on the road with James Blunt, with the backdrop story being the 'All the Lost Souls' tour, including photos never seen before
