About this ebook

This book is an incredible story of John Lott, a small, middle-aged banking clerk, who lived in North London. The story of this gentle and respected man was narrated to the author by Lott himself, but the author has presented it in a first-person narrative to preserve his true nature and characteristics. The writing style of the book is sublime and the story absorbing. It is easily comprehensible which holds the reader's interest throughout. Excerpt from My Adventure in the Flying Scotsman "THE rain gave over about five o'clock, and the sun, having struggled unavailingly all day with a leaden November sky, burst forth in fiery rage, when but a few short minutes separated him from the horizon. His tawny splendour surrounded me as I trudged from Richmond, in Surrey, to the neighbouring hamlet of Petersham. Above me the wet, naked branches of the trees shone red, and seemed to drip with blood; the hedgerows sparkled their flaming gems; in the meadows, which I struck across to save time, parallel streaks of crimson lay along the cart-ruts.
