Harry Reid's new book

Former Herald editor publishes personal account of the Scottish press

An insider's look at the past 50 years in Scottish newspapers has been published in a new book by Harry Reid, former editor of The Herald.

DEADLINE: The Story of the Scottish Press is a personal account of Harry's time in newspapers, and looks back at some of the biggest scoops and rivalries during that time.

It also examines how the press dealt with the great pillars of Scottish identity – religion, education and law – as well as politics.
