Becoming a Toff?
Ralph Ironman
Ralph Ironman's astonishing rise from literally the ashes of a deprived family life in 1930s Leicestershire is a testament to energy, inquisitiveness and enterprise. Whether he's relaxing en famille in Denmark, stalking moose in Sweden, or indulging in a little light industrial espionage in Florida, the author is constantly observing, collating and storing the ideas buzzing in his head. It's really a story of survival. If your father pays you no attention and your mother is tragically depressed, you go out and find someone who cares. And that's exactly what Sergeant Ironman did at the end of World War II. Sixty happy years of marriage, forty years of business life as a free-lancer all over Europe and the USA, and he has reached complete contentment - and, as he calls it, 'toffdom'. Enjoy this inspiring and heart-warming life story from a man who has every reason to relish his success.
