Amazon Editorial Review

"Clinging to the Wreckage" is the first and most celebrated volume of John Mortimer's memoirs. It recounts with great wit and style his peculier childhood in the Chilterns - the only son of a blind, poetry-spouting barrister and his devoted wife - followed by the author's own experiences in the law. A bestseller in its day, the book remains one of Mortimer's greatest achievements.
