KORTE INHOUD :
Fred Dibnah won the hearts of millions with his television programmes about his life as a steeplejack, and his passion for the industrial history of Britain. With his trademark flat cap, enthusiasm and knowledge of the country's steam past, his gift for storytelling, and his cry of 'Did you like that!' as another giant chimney slid to genuine favourite with viewers.
Fred grew up in Bolton, at a time when the steam-driven industry that he so loved still dominated the city. It was there that he first acquired his fascination for Britain's industrial past. Starting his working life as a joiner, before turning to steeplejacking - the job he was to love above all others - Fred learned the importance of good workmanship and the sort of skills he would bring home to his own projects, projects that would range from restoring a steamroller to building a working mine in his own back garden.
This is an intimate portrait of Fred, from his childhood to his struggles to make ends meet before television made him a household name and his occassionally troubled private life. We discover all the different sides of Fred's personality - engineer, steeplejack, artist, craftsman, steam enthusiast, inventor, storyteller and eccentric. This definitive biography will delight Fred's many fans.
