Condición: Gut. First Edition. 314 p. Einband etwas abgenutzt, insgesamt stärker vergilbt, sonst sehr guter Zustand / Binding a little worn, overall more yellowed, otherwise very good condition. - [.] He recounts early days in the '20s and '30s of working in Paternoster Row for [he mercurial 'Mr Walter' Hutcliinson, a man who taught him much, but a man capable of replying to a senior employee's request lor a five- or ten-shilling rise with a contemptuous 'Don't you know it costs me £3 a week to feed one of my horses?'. Besides his other responsibilities, Sir Robert was given the small impnnt of Sdwyn & Blount to manage himself, 'as a hobby', thus making him, in 1933, England's youngest publisher. Taking only a 9-Inch ruler deriving from his schooldays, and a wealth of early experience, he left Hutchiiison to establish with Michael Joseph ihe publishing imprint of that name. He describes their tentative, burgeoning years, the complexities of ihe war and its flourishing aftermath: days of bestsellers and leisurely transatlantic voyages on Cunarders with the prospect of lavish entertainment and a deluge of manuscripts provided by American bookmen. After twenty-two years with Michael Josephs Sir Robert was gratefully welcomed back to Hutchiiison where he was managing director until his very recent retirement. When in 1960 he was invited by Harold Macmillan's Government to lie a governor ol the BBC, an exciting new chapter was opened which brought many challenges, much satisfaction and occasional utter bafflement. It was puzzling, for instance, thai the Postrnaster-Generai failed to predict that the appointment to the BBC of the chairman of ITV was likely to startle a few people. Sir Robert brings the same amused, thoughtful and enlightened focus on the world of television as he does on the world of books, revealing throughout a life of rich and valued contribution to the field of communication.
