Publisher Description: ""Sailing Through the Jungle"" by Roy Samuels in part two of an autobiographical trilogy and covers the second twenty years of his life working in the Ladies Fashion Industry. In Britain and Ireland the business commonly referred to as ""The Rag Trade"" in America is more aptly called ""The Jungle"". Roy was born in Dublin in 1933 shortly after his parents moved there from Liverpool. In Book One ""Sailing through Plate glass Doors"" he described what life was like for him and his family, before, during and after World War II. Nowadays, semi-retired, he and his wife Anita live in Manchester close to their four sons, daughters-in-law and eight grandchildren. For the past eight years Roy has been treated for Leukaemia but still finds time to work, write, paint - and play |
