Summary: Julian Assange, the founder of WikiLeaks, is never far from the newspaper headlines. This is the controversial memoir that Julian worked on, but refused to publish. This book is passionate, provocative and opinionated. The publishers have decided to publish it due to Julian's contractual obligations. In order to create this unauthorised first draft, Julian sat for more than 50 hours of taped interviews and spent many late nights at Ellingham Hall (where he was living under house arrest) discussing his life and WikiLeaks with a ghost writer. WikiLeaks has helped redefine our idea of investigative journalism as it tackles some hard-hitting issues and reveals political secrets.
