Stanley I Resume by Stanley Johnson

Stanley I Resume by Stanley Johnson

Stanley Johnson: one-time spy, politician, animal rights crusader - and irresistibly brilliant raconteur. From his career as a Member of the European Parliament to his pioneering work saving the rainforests, Stanley Johnson's life has without doubt been one characterised by adventure.This second volume of rip-roaring and hilarious recollections from the man himself begins with him falling out of a tree on his fortieth birthday, then picks up where its acclaimed predecessor, Stanley, I Presume, left off. Along the way, we're treated to the sights of Stanley posing as a burglar, horrifying Margaret Thatcher with his cocktail party repartee, climbing Kilimanjaro (twice) and navigating the turbulent rapids of parenthood. Riotous and illuminating, Stanley, I Resume paints a vivid portrait of a politician, poet and adventurer, an idealist, a family man and - above all - a born storyteller.

Stanley Johnson is a former Member of the European Parliament, author, journalist and environmental campaigner. He has received the Greenpeace Award for Outstanding Services to the Environment, as well as the RSPCA Richard Martin Award for Services to Animal Welfare and the Silver Medal of the Worldwide Fund for Nature (WWF).
