Synopsis

This is the story of a Liverpool man's poor but happy childhood in Liverpool and the springboard for an equally happy but more prosperous adult life.

His career at sea spanned ten years in which he crossed the world on troopships, emigrant ships, merchant ships, transatlantic liners, and finally cruise ships in the West Indies.

His wonderful job opportunities in New York allowed him to meet numerous celebrities from the theatre, cinema, politics, sport - and the underworld.

Finally, on returning to Liverpool, he built a chain of award winning pubs.
