Tim Marshall is the author of several best-selling books on geopolitics including 'Prisoners of Geography' which has sold more than 2 million copies worldwide and been translated into more than 20 languages. Marshall had three years as IRN’s Paris correspondent and extensive work for BBC radio and TV, before joined Sky News eventually becoming Foreign Affairs Editor. He reported from Europe, Asia, and the USA and covered the conflicts in Bosnia, Croatia, Kosovo, Macedonia, Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, and Syria. He has written for many of the national newspapers including the Times, the Guardian, the Daily Telegraph and The Sunday Times. His first book, Shadowplay: The Overthrow of Slobodan Milosevic, was a bestseller in former Yugoslavia and continues to be one of the most highly regarded accounts of that period. A second book, “Dirty Northern B*st*rds!” and Other Tales from the Terraces: The Story of Britain’s Football Chants was published in 2014, to widespread acclaim. His latest book is 'The Future of Geography' and is about the astroplitics of Space. He has been shot with bird pellet in Cairo, hit over the head with a plank of wood in London, bruised by the police in Tehran, arrested by Serbian intelligence, detained in Damascus, declared persona non grata in Croatia, bombed by the RAF in Belgrade and tear-gassed all over the world. However, he says none of this compares with the experience of going to see his beloved Leeds United away at Millwall FC in London.
