Summary

From presidents to royalty, war-torn regions to stunning scenery, the camera of John Jochimsen has captured it all. Perhaps the last person left alive today who was with Queen Elizabeth the day she became queen, John is one of the last remaining old-school photojournalists. 80 Years Gone in a Flash traces the remarkable story in his own words and with his own incredible pictures. From life at The News of the World to the jungles of Malaya, John provides an honest, witty, and touching account of a colorful career spanning more than five decades.

Worst narrator ever

A fantastic story, ruined by a rambling, incoherent narrator. My dog could have done a better job.
