The writer, Tom Laughton, was brother to the actor and Hollywood film star, Charles Laughton, yet he lived his own fascinating life as a successful hotelier in Scarborough. He was also a friend to author Graham Greene who wrote the foreword and evidently helped him in the writing process. A fascinating autobiography that traces their family history through the 20th century when resorts, such as Scarborough, were in their prime. But his story is far from being parochial and provides an interesting insight into the qualities required to reach the top of his profession. Quantity Available: 1. Shipped Weight: Under 1 kilogram.
