The wit and wisdom of a national hero

Full of the infectious energy that inspired the nation

A dose of wisdom from a British hero . . . A paean to the power of positive thinking

Charmingly delivers his words of wisdom

Gives us a chance to spend a bit longer in his company, to enjoy his wry humour again and to understand how his apparently ordinary life equipped him for his final extraordinary year

So full of warmth and wisdom that it'll make your heart feel lighter by the end

Reads like a self-help book written by a kindly grandfather for his grandchildren: it urges you to dress properly, eat a good breakfast, be nice to others, and not to worry about the rest of it

After the difficult and lonely time we've all shared, it's above all a reminder to keep looking for the joy, every single day

A collection of anecdotes and wisdom from the inspirational war veteran

Captain Sir Tom's memoir-cum-self-help manual is brimful of illuminating reminiscence and good humour. It brings home what a truly remarkable man he was

This small book punches above its weight with words of wisdom from national treasure Sir Tom
