Publisher Description:
In "Scoop," surreptitiously dubbed "a newspaper adventure, " Waugh flays Fleet Street and the social pastimes of its war correspondants as he tells how William Boot became the star of British super-journalism an how, leaving part of his shirt in the claws of the lovely Katchen, he returned from Ishmaelia to London as the "Daily's Beast's" more accoladed overseas reporter. "Stupendous, " exulted this novel's publisher in Britain, "epoch making, intoxicating. We have published nothing comparable to it this week."
