"Although I have been basically an academic for most of my life, the way I got there has taken some surprising turns."An unsuspected ancestry, playing in WW2 London, comical schooldays, and a spell in colonial Africa are just a few of the childhood moments described in John Staddon's memoir The Englishman.This is not just another transatlantic autobiography from a British working-class kid who made his name in the USA. It's a witty and entertaining romp through the subject he has made his own.
