Overview

Born in Yorkshire: The Early Years is a warm-hearted, sharply observed memoir that celebrates growing up in post-war Yorkshire with all its quirks, grit, and charm. From the smell of coal fires to the sound of brass bands on a Sunday, John Brogan paints a vivid portrait of a childhood steeped in working-class pride and regional identity. With humour, honesty, and a touch of mischief, he invites readers into a world where characters like Duggie Brown and Charlie Williams weren't just voices - they were echoes of everyday life. This is a love letter to a time, a place, and a people who shaped him, told with the kind of storytelling that makes you laugh, nod, and maybe shed a quiet tear. Whether you grew up in Yorkshire or simply love stories that honour heritage and heart, this memoir will stay with you long after the final page.
