Beskrivelse af Life in Motion
'If I had been the son of a wealthy man, no doubt a few lines in The Times would have announced my arrival. As it was a humble birth, of which there were only two things to remark on: ....' Growing up in London in the roaring 20's, Arthur watched on as the city was being expanded where endless fields lay beforehand. From errand boy, to telegram boy and shop assistant; fate led him through successes, failures, loves and losses to motoring work. Motoring in the pre war era was still in its infancy but this self taught acquired skill was to be the foundation of his career throughout his life.. Arthur's self taught knowledge of driving paved the way for his army career, all described in such detail that it paints a clear picture of the events he witnessed and day to day life as a soldier during war and peacetime. Being the son of a former soldier who had won the Military Medal for saving an officers life in the trenches in WW1, the army life and camaraderie was an inherent natural way of life and became one of his happiest periods in his life. Arthur's memoirs are full of eloquent wisdom that can only have been achieved through a life well and fully led. It is a thought provoking honest recount of history and you truly feel as if you are living through the decades with him.
