Dispatches from the Frontier
Selected essays from the first fifteen years of a reporting career, on the craft of covering a region the rest of the world only reads about after something goes wrong.
These essays were written between assignments — on what a correspondent owes a source, on the distance between the wire copy and the room it was filed from, and on the slow accumulation of context that makes a story legible.
Together they form an argument for patient reporting in places usually covered in bursts, and a portrait of the frontier as its residents describe it rather than as it is summarised abroad.
