Simma Holt book

Peter Worthington's column yesterday about a new book from Simma Holt pushes the Toronto Sun Family author count to 40.

Memoirs of a Loose Cannon, Simma's fifth book since the 1960s, is available now at Amazon for $14.50.

"What Simma has written, as well as a testimony to herself as one of Canada's great 'natural' reporters, is a book that every journalist should read, and especially every person contemplating a life in newspapers," Peter says of the former Toronto Sun op-ed columnist and 1970s Liberal MP.

Peter's column was topped by another Top 10 headlines contender: Holt the presses: One of Canada's first female journalists pens fascinating memoir.
