Magnificent, Please Reprint

This is one of the finest issues of Granta ever. It affected me profoundly when I read it while traveling ten years ago. It contains a long except from Bill Bryson's "Lost Continent" (unabridged and thus far superior to the book version), an inspiring memoir of the 1930's by Martha Gellhorn, testimonials on the deteriorating Middle Eastern situation, and so much more. Reading it brings you to life in an amazing new way, and puts you in touch with a huge world you may have been oblivious of.I beg that the publisher re-issue this monumental document, so that others' eyes may be opened as magically as were mine.
