<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>In this funny and warm-hearted memoir, JPV Oliver, Gent, of Saratoga Springs, NY, recounts academic disaster, dodgy foreign entanglements, preposterous corporate misadventures and delivers a few poignant tributes along the way. </p><p>A former speechwriter for Seagram and GE, Oliver tells his story in 365 vignettes creating a vibrant picture of an astonishing life, first as a beer truck driver in 1970s Albany, NY, then in a career that took him around the world for decades.</p><p>In one scene, Oliver's delivering kegs of cheap lager to grimy gin mills, next he's on the evening news in New York City, then he's strolling around an 800-year-old Polish salt mine. In one episode, HRH Prince Philip gives him a private tour of Her Majesty's Yacht Britannia.</p><p>Buckle up. It's a remarkable ride.</p><p><br></p><p>JPV Oliver, Gent, is a recipient of the prestigious 2019 Laphroaig Prize for Literature.</p>
