Compelling

Letter of Proceedings is a narrative of a life lived honestly, with humor and humility. But equally interesting to the general reader are Mr. Ritchie's meticulous accounts of the small details of life in the Royal Navy and the international corporate world. A well-written, fascinating volume.

Entertaining, absorbing, thoughtful.

Mr. Ritchie pulls you through a fascinating history of lessons he learned, most often from those who worked with their hands, and then applied them during four careers, a captain of a ship, a senior executive in an international company, a consultant and several directorships with puplic companies. His very well written autobiography captures with much warmth and humor the characters and events which helped shape his life's philosophy. His unique insights on managing people and making difficult decisions reveals a thoughtful and caring individual. Many would do well to read this journal for its win-win business and personal ethics.
