Synopsis
Frederick Forsyth's life reads like one of his thrillers. Skipping school to take flying lessons, he became the youngest pilot in the RAF. By his early 20s he was a foreign correspondent for Reuters in Paris, where he witnessed the OAS's assassination attempts on Charles de Gaulle. His move to Berlin, coincided with his discovery of the Odessa, an organisation that protected Nazi war criminals.
These experiences would become the backbone of Forsyth's first two novels The Day of the Jackal and The Odessa File, powerful international thrillers that formed a whole new genre - the faction novel.
Frederick Forsyth - A Matter of Protocol is an exploration of the life and works of this most popular writer. Detailing Forsyth's life up to the release of The Day of the Jackal and beyond, this biography reveals the man behind some of the most memorable novels of a generation.

Seller: Barclay Books, York, WA, Australia
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Hardback. Written with exclusive access to Frederick Forsyth and supported in full by him, this official book provides an in-depth look at the novelist and his work. Using previously unpublished material, and drawing from several extensive interviews with Forsyth, author Craig Cabell offers both detailed biography and a critical study of all Forsyth's books in order of publication. Forsyth, notoriously reticent on these matters in the past, talks openly about how he researches his work, discusses his own political beliefs and explains the background to each novel. Craig has also talked to many of Forsyth's inner circle, including Lord Janner, Andrew Lloyd Webber, Edward Fox and Derek Jacobi. With a section on movies made from Forsyth's books and a detailed bibliography, this is the definitive companion to one of the most accomplished thriller writers of a generation. 2001, First edition. A near fine copy only marked by very light tanning to the edges. The d/w is unclipped and fine and now in a protective cover. {"length"=>["9.5"], "width"=>["6.5"], "units"=>["Inches"]}.
