A fine autobiography of one of our great authors and engineers, telling of his early life, his engineering apprenticeship and career which took him from a farm in the Vale of Evesham to a locomotive works in Stoke on Trent, and from Dursley to the Wiltshire Downs until he finally settled in a Hampshire village running a garage which specialised in veteran and vintage cars. The book ends with his decision to begin a new career as an author in 1939.
