Sobre IBD

From war-torn London to the Diplomatic Service, Robert Howe’s memoir is a fascinating insight into an interesting and, at times humorous, life. With a famous name on nearly every page and enough diverse careers to fill two lifetimes, this true account of life in the Merchant Navy, the Civil Service, and London in the fifties and sixties will surprise and make you smile throughout. It contains many conversations with some very famous people, including Omar Sharif and Rudolf Nureyev. It also includes a few arguments he has had with various MPs and pop stars. Having travelled extensively, his time living in France will delight everyone who has ever spent time in that country. An excellent chef and keen cyclist, he lives near his favourite City, Chester, with his wife Linda Fraser-Webb.
