The Way it Was and Now

by Roly Armitage

A series of vignettes about his life spanning from the early 1900s to the present day, Roly Armitage's story is an engrossing read. One can almost imagine sitting across the table from him as he spins tale after tale - perhaps over a beverage. The depression years, World War 11, and then earning his degrees as a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine and a Veterinary Surgeon provided the background that launched him into many careers. In each of those careers he excelled, never allowing temporary setbacks to discourage him from attaining his goals. At times you will find yourself shedding a few tears and at other times laughing aloud but you will not be bored. A man of honesty and integrity who has lived life to the fullest and always on his own terms.

My friend Roly wrote a lovely little book about his life. Since I know him, I can remember him more by it.
He was a storyteller and these books are his stories.
He wrote it with the same humour I knew him with.
