Sobre IBD

Described by Roy Greenslade in the Guardian as ’the tireless archivist of Fleet Street memories (many of which may be true)’, Revel Barker created and edited a website that The Times called ’a brilliant compendium of reminiscences of the great days of Fleet Street.’It ran for six years and in its heyday had more than 50,000 readers worldwide, every week. Now Barker has compiled the story of his own road to The Street, interspersed with anecdotes about the people he met and wrote about - the great and the good and the greedy - in politics, in business and in show-business, in war and in peace... but mostly in newspapers.
