Chasing History: A Kid in the Newsroom - by Bernstein, Carl - Hardcover

Author:Ā Bernstein, Carl
Binding:Ā Hardcover
Pub Date:Ā January 11, 2022
In 1960, Bernstein was just a sixteen-year-old at considerable risk of failing to graduate high school. Inquisitive, self-taught—and, yes, truant—Bernstein landed a job as a copyboy at theĀ Evening Star, the afternoon paper in Washington. By nineteen, he was a reporter there.

InĀ Chasing History: A Kid in the Newsroom, Bernstein recalls the origins of his storied journalistic career as he chronicles the Kennedy era, the swelling civil rights movement, and a slew of grisly crimes. He spins a buoyant, frenetic account of educating himself in what Bob Woodward describes as ā€œthe genius of perpetual engagement.ā€

Funny and exhilarating, poignant and frank,Ā Chasing HistoryĀ is an extraordinary memoir of life on the cusp of adulthood for a determined young man with a dogged commitment to the truth.
