Description
Mike Peyton is the world's most famous nautical cartoonist - the Matt
or Giles of the sailing world. This is his authorised biography,
complete with many of his iconic cartoons, written by Dick Durham - ex
Fleet Street journalist, Yachting Monthly's Features Editor and Mike's lifelong friend.
Dick
romps through Mike's life, from his early schoolboy sketches to being
seconded by the intelligence corps during World War Two to draw maps of
the North African deserts, from there running a PoW newspaper, and,
back in the UK, going on to work as a freelance cartoonist on as
diverse titles as the Church of England Times and Corsetry &
Underwear.
Sympathetic, entertaining and insightful, this is the
long-deserved biography of a man who has dominated the nautical humour
scene for well over seven decades.
