A Sheffield Boy

An absorbing essay in autobiography from the pen of one of South Yorkshire''s leading historians and football writers, A Sheffield Boy is representative of an entire generation, an intriguing insight into a Sheffield which has long since disappeared. Keith Farnsworth writes from the heart with the humour and honesty of an inverterate romantic who, despite a background and circumstances which were often far from ideal, finally achieved success and fulfilment as a writer and journalist. Whether recalling his grandfather''s mysterious disapperance at sea, or the injustice of being expelled from school, A Sheffield Boy tells a colourful and entertaining tale of life in this great city after the Second World War.
