Description
A selection of articles from "The Guardian", of the most important, surprising or amusing events of 1991-92, from the tragedies and triumphs of the world stage to the dramas of the cricket field. The continuing disintegration of the Soviet Union, the futile warring between Serbs and Croats in Yugoslavia, the horrifying internecine killings in South Africa, as well as its mould-breaking "yes" vote, the American primaries, our own General Elections and the Labour Party's leadership election are all analyzed and discussed by "The Guardian"'s award-winning team of political and foreign correspondents. It was an extraordinary year for sex. The trials of William Kennedy Smith, Mike Tyson, Clarence Thomas and Anita Hill, and Paddy Ashdown provide meaty material for "The Guardian"'s observers of our times. It also includes articles on the tribulations of World Cup players of cricket and rugby and on participants in the Winter Olympics.
