'This book...is the stuff folk tales are made of. How wonderful that sometimes they are true' - MARTIN FREEMAN
'An engaging book...There wasn't one anecdote or episode that didn't make you wish to hear more about it' - THE TIMES

What a century of life experience can teach us about happiness, ambition, courage, love and how to make the most of the lives we've been given.
How many people do you know grew up as a poor immigrant in America during the Great Depression, won a scholarship to Harvard Law School, landed on the beaches of Normandy on D Day, were present at the liberation of concentration camps including Buchenwald, Mauthausen and Flossenburg, held leading Nazis to account at the Nuremberg trials and have fought for an International Criminal Court to hold war criminals to account the world over?
Now you know one.
Benjamin Ferencz turned 100 in 2020. In this extraordinary book, he shares his remarkable life story and the nine humble, compelling and life-affirming lessons he's learned along the way that we can all harness for ourselves.
