The Last Pub in Fleet Street : A Reporter's Notebook

Described by Roy Greenslade in the Guardian as ‘the tireless archivist of  
Fleet Street memories (many of which may be true)’, Revel Barker created  
and edited a website that The Times called ‘a brilliant compendium of  
reminiscences of the great days of Fleet Street.’  

It ran for six years and in its heyday had more than 50,000 readers  
worldwide, every week.  

Now Barker has compiled the story of his own road to The Street,  
interspersed with anecdotes about the people he met and wrote about – the  
great and the good and the greedy – in politics, in business and in  
show-business, in war and in peace… but mostly in newspapers.
