Edward Stourton is a British journalist and broadcaster, a familiar voice on BBC Radio 4. His book and audiobook Auntie's War: The BBC During the Second World War is a fascinating, deeply researched account of how the BBC operated during wartime, navigating propaganda, censorship and the vital role of broadcasting in sustaining national morale. Stourton's writing is engaging and authoritative, and the audiobook is a compelling listen for history and media fans.
