I watch Anderson Cooper 360 every night and so I decided to read his book to learn more about how he became a journalist. This book not only tells that, it also has stories of his travels to war torn areas and areas hit by natural disasters. Call me naive but I never realized how bad things really are in places like that. This book helped to open my eyes and I enjoy watching Anderson Cooper more now knowing what lengths he's gone to in order to bring a story to the public.
