Tintawn and Binder Twine

Autor John Rigby-Jones
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 22 sep 2020
In 1933 an Englishman leased a derelict British cavalry barracks in co. Kildare from the Irish government to build a rope factory. When war came in 1939 Ireland remained neutral and faced both German invasion and a British trade embargo. Desperate measures were needed to ensure that Irish farmers never ran out of twine to gather the harvest.

Notă biografică

John Rigby-Jones was educated at Sherborne School and rowed and read classics at Oriel College, Oxford. After qualifying as a chartered accountant in 1980 he worked in the private healthcare sector for over 30 years before retiring in 2015. It was only when his father died in 2006 that he rediscovered his grandfather's letters and diaries from the First World War which he had first read as a student and which he assumed had subsequently been lost. He had always been intrigued by them and, since his father's death, has spent much of his spare time trying to find out more about his grandfather, who died before he was born, and visiting the battlefields where he fought. John is now working on a second book about his grandfather's life after the war.
