There are great foreign correspondents . . . and then there is Robert Fisk. For decades, The Independent's man in Beirut has been unrivalled as a witness to the world's troubled places. Lebanon, Israel, Iraq, Algeria, Northern Ireland, former Yugoslavia - he has reported from them all in their darkest hours, fearlessly seeking out the truth and recording it with an honesty, passion and integrity that have won him a global following.

Combining the vividness of fiction with a forensic rigour and a profound - and sometimes prophetic - historical wisdom, his dispatches constitute an unforgettable portrait of a dangerous and tragic age.

Only with The Independent print edition.
