"Sinopsis" puede pertenecer a otra edición de este libro.
Following London Particulars, the first volume of C.H. Rolph's autobiography, this volume traces his varied career from the end of World War I to the present day. During these years, Rolph served twenty-five years in the City Police, became a freelance journalist, and joined the editorial staff of the New Statesman, where he worked with such notables as Kingsley Martin, Raymond Mortimer, V.S. Pritchett, Karl Miller, and Claire Tomalin. Rolph's breezy memoirs, hailed by the Sunday Telegraph as "affectionate, funny, unassuming and delightful," will appeal to historians and biography-lovers alike.
