The Hidden Whistle and Flute: Stitch One Paperback – 1 Mar. 2008

The poverty and hardship endured by the lad even being betrayed by his own father was so sad. I was heartened to read of his triumphs later in life.

Great read cannot wait for the next one when finally released.

Beautifully written book, thoroughly recommend .

Really good read

Up the Apple and pears

I had the pleasure of going to the book launch, held in the Old Kent Road, London. George Major is a personal friend and until I read the book I had no idea of what a traumatic life he had, he never feels sorry for himself or talks about his past and is always there to listen to and help others. He is a truly inspirational man and always comes across as a happy go lucky, cheeky chappie. Because I know him does not make me biased, this is an excellent book and is not all about George but about the tradition that is the Pearly Kings & Queens and what they stand for. It is a fantastic read and will be enjoyed by all.

George's story makes compelling reading. Written openly and honestly, the events of George's life cannot help but touch the hearts of everyone who reads it. You will be in tears one minute as George remembers the neglect and the punishments at the hands of his father and Aunt Hilda, but in fits of laughter in the next reading of all his cheeky escapades. What makes George so remarkable is that inspite of his horrendous childhood, he has dedicated his life to helping others. The Hidden Whistle and Flute is truly inspiring and I can't wait for Stitch Two!Fondest WishesLynne Stevens

I found George's book interesting and compelling. Horror struck at the cruelty he was subjected to as a child. Amused at the antics he got up to. Can't wait for the next book.
