While at home, I suddenly realised that from now on the target would be shooting back at me, and most probably more efficiently.From the front line in the Second World War to logging in Canada, from welding in Australia to teaching in the Home Counties, Roy Davidson enjoyed an extraordinarily varied working life. Born in Manchester in the 1920s to Jack and Gertie, Roy’s determination to make his own choices and to follow his own path led him away from his parents into frequent clashes with authority and some unusual career choices, all of which he describes in his witty and compelling memoir.
