An octogenarian- the author is 88 of age-looking back to his younger pages of life reminisces, especially when the vicissitudes of his life are varied and are of public interest. They are less than a comprehensive autobiography but more than a casual anecdotal recollections of the author spanning his days as student, at the bar, as legislator and minister, as judge of the Supreme Court and as a convinced crusader for public causes in the long years spent after superannuation. In a sense, they have uniqueness and historical value and project thoughts and express views which have relevance not withered by time. Read on and the book will reveal an activist, humanist and compassionate soul.
