Futures Past Sam Merry

Sam Merry makes the most of new educational opportunities, backed by wonderful parents who begin a gypsy life when he is eight, moving around England with the Salvation Army. He continues travelling, with often colourful and witty insights into countries in which he has lived and taught: across Europe by motorbike in 1975 to Egypt under Sadat, Singapore under Lee Quan Yew, the Czech Republic ten years after the Velvet Revolution, Germany during the introduction of the Euro and his new home of China before the Beijing Olympic Games
