About the book
"It was while we lived in Herbert Road that I acquired my toy box ... It was quite large enough for me to climb into and it became by turns a boat, a cave or a house, according to which story or character was exercising my imagination at the time."Suburban Boy is the charming story of a bygone era, of a boy who grew up in south-east London in the 1930s. Adrian Bristow came from that great unsung mass - the lower middle-class. He grew up in the years before the war, a time of rising standards of living, burgeoning home ownership and social mobility. It was a time when there was respect for authority and a strong consciousness of nation and empire.
