Memoirs Of A Rebel Journalist: The Autobiography Of Wilfred Burchett (2005, 2007) By George Burchett & Nick Shimmin
 
As the first journalist to describe the aftermath of the atomic bomb in Hiroshima, Wilfred Burchett (1911―1983) has been widely recognised as one of the most important war correspondents in Australian history. For most of his working life, controversial Australian journalist Wilfred Burchett chose to report from the 'other side'. His unorthodox views and activities caused him to be labelled a traitor by many. Criticised ferociously by anti-communist groups and intelligence organisations in Australia and the US, the Australian Government denied him a passport for 17 years, forcing him to live in exile. At a time when much international reporting is dominated by ‘spin’ and propaganda, this compelling autobiography resonates with these issues facing journalism today.
