The Last Chronicle of Bouverie Street

Originally published in 1963. This book tells the story of the closure of the News Chronicle and its London evening companion The Star as seen by two journalists on the News Chronicle. They describe the Daily News tradition, record some of its finest hours and write about some of its greatest journalists. They endeavour to unravel what went on in Bouverie Street immediately before, at the moment of the crash and afterwards.
