How a boy who only ever wanted to go to sea ended up running a provincial daily newspaper The Accidental Editor is the autobiography of a man who never wanted to be a journalist . . . until he was one. Richard Harris became a reporter on his local weekly paper only because it seemed a slightly better bet than shovelling horse manure on a mushroom farm, which was his introduction to working life. Almost immediately he realised that it was the job he was cut out for - and not just because it was through it that he chanced to meet the woman who was to become the love of his life. The Accidental Editor - set in an age before newspapers were taken over by the money men, and when journalism was still great fun - is a story of tragedy and humour, of excitement and frustration, and of hard work and unlikely lucky chances. It is a story of memorable characters - from the inspiring editors he worked under to the world famous celebrities he met along the way. But most of all it is a story of how a string of coincidences, good luck and being in the right place at the right time can take a man to places he never intended to go to.
