Description

In this eclectic and delightful mix of memoir, biography, and history, veteran journalist and broadcaster Eric Beardsley gives a candid account of his life. This narrative chronicles the reporter's experiences from his childhood in 1920s and 1930s Christchurch, New Zealand, to his achievements as lead writer at the Press and information officer for the University of Canterbury. With humor and punchy observation, the book will bring lasting pleasure in its vivid portrait of a life well lived, of a province and its university, and of New Zealand over the last eight decades.

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
