  • The Autobiography of a Cad

    by A.G. Macdonell, Alan Sutton, Fonthill Media ...

Macdonell had great fun in writing this book, undoubtedly his funniest. It is written as a tongue-in-cheek 'autobiography' of a man who ploughs his way through life shafting everyone around him. After inheriting an estate from his dull father while ... Read more
