"The Long Lede Anthology is great for dipping in and out of; with various writing styles, each piece is thoroughly researched and uses accessible, almost conversational language, making complex issues easier to understand. This anthology is a timely companion to Leigh Sales’ Storytellers and proves that well-written and researched articles are still relevant—and powerful conversation starters"- ALIDA GALATI, BOOKS + PUBLISHING
