Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 Daddy was a doctor who was extremely handsome as a young man. He had a high forehead, glossy black hair, a ravishing smile, and a little moustache. He looked rather like Charlie Chaplin. He was a very fine doctor, well-mannered, with a profound sense of right and wrong. #2 My grandfather, Philip Margolyes, was a peddler who sold small gems and trinkets. He was a quiet, sweet man who was liked by his customers. The family was orthodox Jewish, and my father suffered from rickets as a child. #3 Daddy’s parents spoke and read Hebrew, but they were not formally educated. They were poor but determined that their children would enjoy every benefit of a Scottish education. Daddy was especially bright, and in 1917, he received his call-up papers. #4 My father, who was a doctor, took the name off the draft when he heard that my grandfather wanted me to have it. He was extremely shy in company, and could never understand my delight in being different.
