Publisher's Synopsis
The story of Ken Lewis is not just the usual kind of 'rags to riches' one but that of a family whose humble roots grew into a busy and successful family. Born during the war and brought up in post-war Shepherds Bush, he started his working life as a van salesman and through hard work and his ability as a marketing man made his way to the top - to buy the firm. Then, having sold it, he went on to new pastures and proved himself to be just as successful in other fields, such as education and green energy. All this however takes second place to his real love - family, his wife Lynn, their three children and now their grandchildren. A lifetime diarist, it is for them that, he wrote this story. It is one that ranges from Dagenham in the East End to Brentwood in Essex. It is a global journey that also takes in every state in the USA including a home in Arizona. This is a journey from the Bush with some spectacular stops on the way.
