Graeme Fife
Our
first impression of Graeme Fife was created when he arrived
at our gates, he had just completed a traverse of the Pyrenean chain using
not a conventional route but one devised by his friend John over a mountain
top that could not be described as a Pass .He sat down in his cycling gear
and we immediately started to get to know him.
Several years later we have spend a lot of time with him .He stayed with us to complete the Tour Book , came on a Charity ride we were co-ordinating as the Sweep ( His task to see all riders home with humour and kindness ) And has visited us as a personal friend .
We have been lucky to see lots of his work, published and in progress.And can recommend it without hesitation
.

This is an autobiography of boxing trainer,
George Francis. Borne in 1928 in the slums of Camden Town, he left school
at the age of 11, and immediately started work. His earliest involvement
with boxing was as a bare knuckle street fighter but, after a spell in
Wormwood Scrubs, he turned from pavement warfare to amateur boxing.
