Beschreibung
From the Foreword by Harry Mount: "Every turn in Algy's life has produced unique contradictions. He left the Grenadier Guards and, a few years later, struck black gold as one of the first buccaneering oilmen in the North Sea. But how many oilmen are P. G. Wodehouse devotees, like Algy. And how many oilmen love magazines so much that they buy an actual magazine itself - in Algy's case, the Spectator. With this rare combination of commercial acumen, military derring-do and man-of-letters curiosity, Algy has sent back these moreish reports from the worlds of business, the Army, politics and a daring new wine venture in his 80s. "Reviews of Algy Cluff's books:"Enjoyably gossipy, Get On With It also contains valuable insights into business and political life. " - Daily Mail". one of the few books I'd read which I wished longer. "- Charles Moore, Spectator". this rattling, full-throttled, red-blooded memoir. "- Richard Davenport-Hines, TLS". a splendid book. " - The Times
