Publisher's Synopsis
In this third volume of Memoirs, Robert Bowman again draws on Events and Experiences from his interesting International Legal and Commercial Consultancy career which has spanned over 4 decades. In so doing, he inexorably draws the reader into the highs and lows of working internationally at 'the sharp end' - where nothing is quite what it seems and every day throws up new challenges........... In this exciting volume of 'Dispatches from the Coal Face of Life', the reader experiences 20 Tales of Survival - whether from the pastel confines of a Hospital ward or the exotic surrounds of an Indian Wedding to the ghosts of the bloody battlefields of Waterloo, Gettysburg and The Little Big Horn. In this new stimulating volume of hard hitting historic writing, the reader will feel the heat of a multi-million dollar football transfer deal and the pressure of a multi-million dollar ship auction to facing overwhelming odds in courageous battles for survival. From the first Chapter to the last, the reader is taken again on a memorable and sometimes poignant journey and emerges at the end somehow strengthened by the experience.
