Product Information

John has profoundly provided a gift for all mankind to an awareness of the courageous who went before us, for all of us!

Before joining the BBC in 2001, Sweeney worked for twelve years at The Observer, where he covered wars and revolutions in more than sixty countries including Romania, Algeria, Iraq, Chechnya, Burundi and Bosnia.
