Beschreibung

Signed and inscribed by author upon front free endpaper. 160 pages. Index. Second printing of the 1965 first edition. "Life led him on a varied and fascinating road - to Gallipoli, Egypt, Palestine and France in the First World War, to Russia in the second; to Africa often; into Parliament for 15 years, five of them as P.P.S. to one of the War Cabinet; and always, wherever he went, to a warm place in the hearts of those with whom he worked." - dust jacket. "The laconic title of this volume admirably sums up its nature. Here is no formal autobiography, but the lively reminiscences of one who can took back on a full and active life of over 80 years and convey to the reader some of the zest with which he has lived it. This book projects the personality of its author: a man of great energy, wide interests, strong prejudices, and one who can convey the atmosphere of the scene, or the personality of a public figure, by a characteristic and sometimes slightly indiscreet story far more effectively than any formal description would give." - Royal Commonwealth Society Journal. Book clean and unmarked with very light wear. Binding tight. Average wear to dust jacket now preserved in mylar. A sound signed copy. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 342h5020
