Description
A remarkable insight in 19th and 20th century social and naval history through the eyes of a self-styled 'ordinary man'.
Sydney Hills describes a fascinating and colourful life spanning two centuries and two World Wars.
From his earliest childhood memories of modest country life in rural Lincolnshire before the advent of the motor car, Hills takes us through the pioneering development of early radio and around the globe as a signalman with the Royal Navy, all with an incredible memory for detail.
