Seller's Description:
As New. 12mo-over 6¾"-7¾" tall. Spine Lightly Chipped; Moderate Yellowing Due to Age. THE NATIONAL BESTSELLER. COVER PHOTOGRAPHS COURTESY OF: The Author. COVER DESIGN BY: Melissa Jacoby. SYNOPSIS: Robert MacNeil first discovered the magic of language as a boy in Nova Scotia, listening as his mother read to him from Treasure Island and other classics. His dawning and growing fascination with words, the worlds they opened up to him, the experiences they enriched, form the subject of this vivid and poignant memoir by the man who would grow up to coauthor The Story of English, and to become a respected television journalist. Recapturing his lost youth, unearthing treasured experiences, and relating them with wit and immediacy, MacNeil creates more than just an autobiography: Wordstruck offers a rare glimpse into the making of a man of letters. Robert MacNeil is co-anchor and executive editor of the MacNeil/Lehrer NewsHour. He is the co-author of the bestselling The Story of English.
