History, both political and literary, was made when W. F. Deedes met Evelyn Waugh in 1935. Both were in Abyssinia to cover a war which many in England regarded with bewildered indifference but which profoundly influenced an impending global conflict. Whilst Deedes was principally concerned with filing copy to London, the author of "Brideshead Revisited" had another agenda and another novel in mind, "Scoop". As Waugh drank, played poker and observed hacks in seedy hotel bars in Addis Ababa, he focused on one young reporter. W. F. Deedes has always denied his association with Scoop's Boot, the innocent abroad and nature-notes writer who is accidentally dispatched to a war-zone. However, he acknowledges some similarities - particularly the tonnage of kit he shipped from London. Bill Deedes considers that 'little' war and its importance with the hindsight of a further sixty-odd years of impeccably thoughtful reporting from other battlefields, whilst offering unique memories of his difficult contemporary - arguably the finest English novelist of his time. Written with characteristic wit, insight and affection, "At War With Waugh" is a small classic. 'A fascinating memoir...full of well-observed detail and wonderful throwaway asides' - Hugh Massingberd, "Daily Telegraph".

all the trivia, but fun. 35年墨索裏尼入侵阿比西尼亞前期西方記者紮堆AddisAbaba時的迴憶錄，其實吧跟沃扯上關係的不多，除瞭偶爾幾筆隻有一章花瞭比較多筆墨寫《Scoop》中的原型都來自哪裏，所以這個標題略那啥……不過這些雞毛蒜皮讀起來很有趣，比如沃為瞭美國名記knickerbocker說他位列赫胥黎排名第二而打架、取笑本書作者帶去非洲的500斤行李、因為小說人物和現實人物太相似而和對方交惡被澆一臉酒之類的……
