By G. J. Weeks
The author is a very distinguished journalist whose story starts in Halifax, Nova Scotia before WWII. His father was often away at sea and his mother's story reading was the start of a love affair with words. To his father's great disappointment he failed the entrance exams for naval officer training and while studying to try again realised his love was for literature, not the sea. He tried to make a career in acting but realised he did not have the gifts so studied for a degree in English and became a radio announcer then a journalist.His account of his schooldays is delightful and I can identify with him having a father who failed to tell him the facts of life which he learned from seeing a friend's mother's Gray's Anatomy. His account of his love for cricket, explaining it for Americans and the story about his first over caught and bowled of a pretentious school master are a gem from the great game. One thing of his youth that has now changed so much is that there are no sexual adventures before marriage. His affection for his mother and his father are well told and moving.One learns some new things about English from this author who so delights in our language. I never knew the rhyming slang origin of 'Bristols' nor how Shakespeare broke the rules of grammar. A book to delight all who delight in our mother tongue and something of a modest part biography. He does not tell us about his part in the drama of President Kennedy's assassination.
