The Boy From Hammersmith

If you find true stories of mischief intriguing, this book is a 'must read'. The author has ostensibly written an account of his life's experiences from infancy through to so-called retirement. He describes how, being disadvantaged from birth, he had to battle through hardship, extreme poverty, and violent bullying. Destined to go nowhere in life in his early teens, decided enough was enough and set out on a path totally at odds with all expectations.

The author's life story is packed with humour, innuendo, and a tad or two of sauciness that, for him, provided a mental shield from the less desirable experiences of his life.

Share the writer's experiences and anecdotal stories as he recalls his upbringing in London during the post-war years of the 1940s and the 1950s before breaking out and making a future for himself. Unusual in many respects, the author describes how he enlisted into the British army at the age of fifteen and later became a serving police officer. His story is poignant, sometimes sad, but often very, very funny.
