This autobiographical account by Jean Rook concentrates on the woman behind the tough public image. As well as stories of the famous, saints and sinners, she describes the horror of discovering she had breast cancer and the events that followed, and enduring the experience of an armed robbery in her home. Her husband never really recovered and died of a brain tumour. She describes the joys of the relationship with her son, her rewarding friendship with such disparate people as Diana Dors and Margaret Thatcher and continuing fun and fights with the barons of Fleet Street. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Store Description

In 2002, World of Books Group was founded on an ethos to do good, protect the planet and support charities by enabling more goods to be reused. Since then, we've grown into to a global company pioneering the circular economy. Today, we drive the circular economy through three re-commerce brands: - Wob: Through Wob, we sell. We provide affordable, preloved books and media to customers all over the world. A book leaves our collection of over seven million titles and begins a new chapter every two seconds, enabling more goods to be reused. - Ziffit: Through Ziffit, we buy. We give people around the world the opportunity to contribute to the circular economy, earn money and protect the planet, by trading their unwanted books and media. - Shopiago: Through Shopiago, we help others. By sharing the technology that has grown World of Books Group into the business it is today, we?re helping charities increase revenue and reduce waste through re-commerce.
