A remarkable journey into the heart of shattered Sarajevo. A tense encounter with Miss Piggy. A groundbreaking scoop as the Cold War comes to an end. An exhilarating seal hunt at the North Pole - and the perilous truth about cats. It's all compiled in Bloody Adjectives, as Peter Rhodes, former chief feature writer with England's largest evening newspaper, the Express & Star in Wolverhampton, takes a nostalgic look back at half a century in journalism and shares some unforgettable assignments, ranging from royal weddings to wars, natural disasters, life-threatening knocks, and the lighter side of life. Rhodes mingled with princes and paupers, legendary actors and prominent politicians, and military heroes. He documented some of the most significant events of our time and now shares a wealth of memories and award-winning dispatches. Along the way, he encounters a pink poodle, a fried frog, a wounded Home Secretary, and the twilight of the Empire. He also unveils the secret behind Princess Anne's enchanted fairy grotto loo.
