Playing off the roof & other stories: a patchwork of memories

Product Description

Playing off the roof & other stories

Written with humour and insight, this informal memoir is a delightful celebration of the passions that have driven Simon Brown. Whether recalling incidents from his early years as a barrister (courageously breaking away from the family business) or as Treasury Devil, or during the later stages of his legal career (ending as a Justice of the Supreme Court) - or whether talking about his family, telling us his golfing tales, or describing his enjoyment of the Garrick and his many travels around the world - he exudes a zest and delight in what he does and an affection for those he works with and meets that is a deeply endearing characteristic.
