Publisher's Synopsis
Born in Somerset, Philip Nourse moved at the age of seven to Windsor Castle. Here he enjoyed the privileges of singing in the choir of St George's Chapel, a Royal Peculiar, mixing with royalty and attending grand parties. His ten years living in the castle, especially during the golden era of the 1960s, and meeting an exceptional mix of people would change his life. This well-illustrated memoir recounts the richness of a privileged upbringing, the fairytale excitement of Windsor Castle, and the ups and downs of his personal and professional life, while offering glimpses of a colourful life in Hong Kong. The story also explores the author's emotions, reflections and self-doubts.
