À propos de cet e-book
From the Pulitzer Prize–winning, #1 New York Times–bestselling author, “an unsparing and sympathetic portrait of a newspaperwoman” set in the 1940s–1970s(The Wall Street Journal).
The riveting tale of one woman’s journey and her rise to power. Anna Hastings, the story of a female journalist whose career begins just as the United States is getting into World War II, gives readers an inside glimpse into the workings of journalism in Washington. Pulitzer Prize–winning author Allen Drury takes his own experience in the field to reflect on the state of journalism in the capitol. In contrast to his other books, notably Advise and Consent, he humanizes the very field he often calls into question. Anna Hastings is a magnificent novel, shown through the eyes of vivid, fascinating, and humanly likable characters, from a master of spellbinding political fiction.

À propos de l'auteur
Allen Drury is a master of political fiction, #1 New York Times bestseller and Pulitzer Prize winner, best known for the landmark novel ADVISE AND CONSENT. A 1939 graduate of Stanford University, Allen Drury wrote for and became editor of two local California newspapers. While visiting Washington, DC, in 1943 he was hired by the United Press (UPI) and covered the Senate during the latter half of World War II. After the war he wrote for other prominent publications before joining the New York Times' Washington Bureau, where he worked through most of the 1950s. After the success of ADVISE AND CONSENT, he left journalism to write full time. He published twenty novels and five works of non-fiction, many of them best sellers. WordFire Press will be reissuing the majority of his works.
