God Bless Mrs McGinty!: My Life and The Sunday Post

by Bill Anderson

Overview

This warm, articulate and entertaining autobiography by Bill Anderson CBE about his life and times as the editor of The Sunday Post is especially resonant as he was editor when The Sunday Post was at its height in sales. Helping to make the paper one of the UK's most successful newspapers, Anderson shows how he did that, and also chronicles a special view of Scotland and The Sunday Post itself, from the late 1930s to the 1980s. The book charts Anderson's life growing up in working-class Glasgow, attending Glasgow University, army days, and becoming the HON Man to his promotion, and achievements as Editor of The Sunday Post when it was the biggest-selling Sunday newspaper in the UK.
