The Man with Mud on His Boots

More about the book

From humble beginnings on a post-war council estate to the highest courts in the land, Peter Chainey's life encompasses both the rough and tumble of growing up in the bomb sites of Southampton and the thrill of creating new statute law and meeting Diana Dors. Family, tragedy and love are interlaced with the law, civic responsibility and community representation, in this memoir set against the background of the UK's history in the last seventy years.
