Arias and Raspberries by Harry Secombe

In this first volume of Sir Harry Secombe's autobiography, he recalls his childhood in Swansea, his first job as a pay clerk, and his army days, where he met Spike Milligan. The book also includes an account of the Windmill Theatre and of touring in Variety, and memories of the first Goon Shows.

Spike Milligan was perhaps best known as one of the Goons. He went on to become one of Britain's foremost comic writers and performers. His bestselling titles include Adolf Hitler: My Part in His Downfall, Puckoon, and Where have all the Bullets Gone? He died in 2002. Larry Stephens was a scriptwriter who wrote for several popular comedy shows in the 1950s, including The Tony Hancock Show and The Army Game. He is probably best known as co-writer of many Goon Show episodes, along with Spike Milligan. He died in 1959.
